Car:
2005 M6 Z51 ~104,000
As the title says I get a clunk/rattle noise when accelerating from a stop. Noise seems to be coming from the front passenger side. The best way to describe the sound is "lug nut rolling around in a plastic container"; I say that because it sounds so similar to that I had to make sure there wasn't a lug nut in the glove box. I assume all of the bushings are original, car was a Florida for the majority of it's life.
I'm looking for suggestions on what to look for when I get it on stands to investigate.

they can also shift to one side and hit the lower control arm. Id inspect the bars, end links, shock nuts/bolts, upper and lower control arm bolts, caliper bolts, and the bearing torx bolts.
