Svo að aðeins sé nú haldið áfram með þyngdarpælingar á M6.....
Fékk febrúar hefti CAR inn um lúguna hjá mér í síðustu viku. Þar er fjallað um nýjan M6 og sagt að hann sé 1.710 kg (og þar með ekki nema 20 kg þyngri en 645Ci):
"For a start it has been on a carbonfibre, aluminium and thermoplastic diet, so it's 120 kg lighter than its saloon counterpart. It has lower center of gravity and more aggressive suspension set-up."
"Engineers claim it drives very differently from the heavier M5: more hard-edged, more alert and delivering the kind of searing in-gear acceleration that promises to leave even the M5 trailing"
"Weight saving measures include a bonded carbonfibre roof that trims 4,5 kg, plus plastic mounts for the bumpers, aluminium doors, revised bonnet and suspension components, and thinner glass for the rear window."
Heimild: CAR February 2005.
Alls ekki slæmt
