Very cool to finally get corroboration on quantitative stats!
Thanks for posting. Track a bit chilly. Optimal conditions might get a 7:4x time. Just incredible how freaking fast cars have gotten.

Great lap time and in between some impressive cars on the all time list.
3 pages in .... and all positive comments what's going on....is the car deemed 'ok' now by owners of other BMW models?

BTW, a very interesting interview of Horst von Saurma by Pistonheads. On the relevance of Nürburgring lap times:

Numbers are numbers and I think most agreed that this car would be fast.

I think 5.52min is no bad NOS time for an M4 equipped with DCT and on PSS !
BUT ... if the all new and lighter W205 C63 only improves 10s in NOS time it would be faster than the M4 on track ... what was in the past only the case if you compare the M3 with much newer and LCI cars of the C63. Seems totally clear that the gap between M3/M4 and C63 is getting dramatical smaller if their would be even an gap !? |

BTW, I totally get that your point was to refute the "gap closing argument" (aka sky is falling) and it was a good one. I was just adding the above for extra info, hope it didn't come across as pedantic (as i know this is a thread about the 'ring) |

Not to mention the widening gap with Porsche and Vettes.

I think its a very respectable time and a great starting point! Now imagine the same car with R compound tires, coil over kit, exhaust system & ECU tune!! With just a few minimal modifications, I am confident it would hit 7:45 or less!
This car does stay true to its dual purpose: an everyday, usable, comfortable daily driver, that is also confident and very able on track!!! Can't wait to get my M4!!! |
