TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2016 BMW M6 is a no-compromises kind of car for buyers unfazed by traditional sports car manufacturers. It's better suited for the streets than the track, and that's not a bad thing.

The 2016 Maserati Quattroporte is a rare sight, but shouldn't be—it's gorgeous, with sharp, Ferrari-flavored performance.

TCC Likes

The M6 is shockingly fast
Gran Coupe is a sleeker alternative to the M5
Standard Active M differential to direct torque

Flowing Italian design
Tasteful, refined interior
Strong twin-turbo engines

TCC Dislikes

Big, heavy and cumbersome
Back seats are hardly usable
Carbon fiber roof is a little too much

Poor gas mileage
Interior not as roomy as you'd expect
