With proper tyres, and derestricted it will go over 200 MPH easy.
The aerodynamic wall is ~215 MPH.

Thanks for correcting me

My point was, you better don't put a hand on the aerodynamic parts of your sports-CallItWhateverYouWantCar, unless you know what you're doing. Top speed limited or not, at 155 mph it's possible that this Porsche wing creates enough upforce to lift the butt of this M6 off the street.

Take a look at the Alpina B6. This car has a speed limit of 315 km/h and therefore its rear-wing is mandatory to keep the car under control at this high speeds. And this wing was constructed under extensive high speed tests.

Agreed.

I was gonna say that the wing was purposefull thing on the Porsche made for the Porsche.
You beat me to it.

However the 996 GT3 is neutral at rear, while the 996 GT3 RS is downforce not uplift. So my guess is that the wing is there for downforce, not uplift.

On the bimmer uplift wouldn't be good, but neither downforce on those unsuited Continental tyres.

Cheers.

cheers to you as well, Imhotep Evil

It was just a wild guess, that a Porsche rear wing could create uplift on a M6. We should cheer this Ricer at the m5board for a test

Damn,someone is really having too much money and too small brain to spend it wisely..period

A wild guess for me too.

Yeah definately we should see a test.

This is what I call stupid. And I agree with ree...this guy has the money, so why not just buy a porsche instead of turning your M6 into a porsche wanna-be?

Matt · 02-16-2007, 02:34 PM

NO NO NO NO NO!!! Its a catastrophe of epic proportions!! WTH was that guy thinking-why didnt he just get a GT3?? It looks like he completely removed the Bangle Butt....
