Remind me how this compare to your old M6 competition, it had that old good factory 575 tune before the euro6 emissions hit.

I think it is a little bit slower than my old m6, but i had big power bonus, 575hp (in theory) but one dyno showed 615hp and another 650hp... so true is probably somewhere between.

100-200 was around 6.6-7.2
200-250: 6.0-6.5

so the faster the better was M6 (at least in vbox numbers)

Latest M5's in europe have OPF (Ottopartikelfilter) - another emission restriction sh*t so it is possible that F90 from the beginning of the production might be actually faster than latest F90 CP ...

Yeah, shame about the OPF, US cars still don't have that thank goodness.

Yeah the good old days at the F10 forum where I had arguments with "M6 Coupe" on how fast the M6 really is.

One of the earliest Auto BILD test on the 2014 M6 CP had it ran 0-300km/h in 30.4 seconds, which is extremely fast. F90 M5 CP did 32.8 in the latest Auto BILD test.

All the subsequent M6 tests ran around 34 seconds, in fact, the 600HP M6 CP only did 35.1.

The 2014 M5 CP that Sport Auto ran on the ring had a faster trap speed than the F90 M5.

So there are people who believe the 2014 year of CP cars before the Euro 6 hits are faster than the later cars.

Yep, mine is a May 2014 production CP car -- I have it on good authority the short run of CP cars from Nov 13 - July 14 were 593hp/556ftlbs and it was the most powerful version of the S63 during its entire lifespan including the 600hp M6 tune like you say.
