That sucks... Its not a m6... missing the badges, easiest way to tell is it does not have the m6 mirrors, or bumper.

360hp 4.8 v8, 22" wheels, 4200+ lbs... im guessing he ran a super high 13 maybe low 14... lol

I had a 645ci... went through, a new motor, new tranny and new diff... (all covered under warranty)... JUNK
