Great write up Jason. Thanks.
My only problem now is deciding between M3 and M4. Don't need four doors but absolutely love the way it looks. |

It may be faster, but the sound I hear every time I'm in M mode and Rev the engine is like injecting adrenaline directly into yourself. Sucks the new one doesn't have the same magic otherwise it would've been perfect.

Turbo charged cars can sound good, will have to wait and see. Its very subjective.

Very happy to know that the F8x M cars will allow us to continue the DCT vs 6MT debate. Choice is a great thing.

Your location information is wrong. And yes, we both will end up dead, but these guys will laugh at the news clip, so many wins, two looses. It's not bad, is it?

Yes, I imagine it's just because there is much less than one would expect. They should just call it "negligible" or "minimal"- we know some exists. HOWEVER, the feel I got from reading the articles was thinking to my previous FI days where say a Supra with a pair of T60s vs a K24-powered hatch with an SC61 turbo vs. a stock turbo 135i. I suppose they say "essentially none" since everything is so relative.

I am so freaking excited for June 23!!!
The F8x is simply a totally different car than the E9x. Hard comparison. So I am keeping the E92 and adding the F82. |
