Im going to bed now but here is a little video teaser. Taken with my digitalcamera. The results is surprisingly good.
I dont know how to edit them and one of the films is 300 mb, this one is 49 mb.

I have some more, one when we following the M6 with a M5 and one when im in a M5 Hartge, going up and down on the airfield. I have a few others too but they will come during the week.

Re: [My story] A day with a BMW M5, M6, 996 Turbo, 996 GT3 and Koenigsegg.

interesting very interesting Just_me , i read the whole report ,but What can i say ? AMAZING ,,, so true and after i read all the report now i have sooo much more respect for both great cars, what a wonderfull day u had....

lol great u didnt loose ur DV cus those speeds r very high , id be scared to go that fast ...
very nice pictures and video , the m5 Hartge looks sleek ....

BTW, the guy is saying that the Koenigsegg is the fastest car in earth , and the Koenigsegg still didnt break 400km/h speed , didnt the 300 SLR break 400 km/h ?

The speedlimit is raised to 315km/h

the scary thing with M6 is that you dont know if you drive 100km/h or 200km/h, you have to check the speedo

There are a few cars that passed 400km/h but not all of speeds are officiell. Besides he probably speaks about modern times and not the old days. Koenigsegg is still in the Guiness recordbook for the fastest production car in the world. The last car that had the record was McLaren F1.

Re: [My story] A day with a BMW M5, M6, 996 Turbo, 996 GT3 and Koenigsegg.

Ok, Just_me... you know I consider you as a friend and inspiration here in the cyber world of german cars.

BUT...

Just for today though, I reserve the right to utterly dislike you intensely after reading about your awesome experience. M5's and M6's? Amazing. 911's Astonishing. Koeningsegg CCR? Gobsmacking. I hope you can feel the jealousy oozing out of my fingertips.

This Christian fellow, you're surely not suggesting that it was the man himself - Christian Koenigsegg?

And then you go and rub it in with such a long and detailed post too - what are you trying to do? Kill me with envy (It's working of course)?



Congrats bro - sounds like you had the best day of your life.

Amazing speed and power of that M6, it appears to have murdered that 911 turbo. I guess that's what 373 kW of BMW M Power is all about eh? And you've driven it. That makes you so much more than just a fan. You're truly a person in the know now.

Awesome, fabulous, enthralling. You deserve one of these:
