Even though this was a very positive review, he still left in some things for the E9x brigade to justify their dislike for the F8x

The main things he pointed out was (to me):

-Throttle response and how the car can be controlled by the throtle more than the previous gen (due to combination of torque and throttle response)

-Steering is good but no revelation, but as he said, neither where the E46 or E9x

-Engine. He doesn't love the noise compared with the E9x and it's kind of a let down for the cars noise that he mentions Radio 4 and ZZ Top... Strangely enough BMW seems to have managed a better soundtrack in the M235i...

-Engine. He'd buy the car because of the engine, not in spite of it

-Engine. It is worth going to 7500rpm in it

Looking forward to the video
