M's go on and on so long as they are properly serviced. their value ensures the owner will continue the necessary upkeep most of the time. the other M's outnumber the M6 by roughly 4 to 1. The only person I know who believes the M6 is as well constructed as the M4 and before is Marc. While he might be proved correct in the long run, he certainly seems to be in the minority opinion.
