M-cars don't offer a winter program: with the first good snow you are a pedestrian. The forum member from Chicago who owns the most beautiful M6 ever http://www.6post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=936741 keeps anyway his 550xi for winter: http://www.6post.com/forums/showpost...p;postcount=39 Good to see people who can afford it 
The most reasonable replacement to 550xi (or upgrade if you want) is IMO the 2015 650i xDrive GC. It will have all beauty and luxury of the 6-series but no issue with seats. Its N63TU can be easily tuned up to 500+ hp. The xDrive will keep it fast and safe all-season. Best choice. |
Yes
As much as I would like a RWD to have fun I just can't see myself without XDrive
