Hopefully I start running in to the new M's when ever i am on the autobahn.
I have yet to see an M3 on the autobahn just a ton of Audi and BMW wagons! |

Did anyone besides me catch that he closed the hood without slamming it? Every F8X that I have tried to close after it hits the first latch won't close on the second push.

I noticed that also, had the same problem when I tried to "soft close" the hood on the M4 I looked at. Guess its a slammer.

When I picked mine up. He showed me the proper method. Bring hood down to neutral balance point then a moderately firm push to close.

Engine note/exhaust is underwhelming. Oh well.

I actually like the cabin sound when he's going around the nordschleife. Probably just the active sound. The tunnel recording was horrible, the exhaust sound was overwhelmed by the whoosh noise of the tunnel.

I went by a dealer at lunch yesterday to check it out. They let me fire it up....and I was immediately disappointed.
It's such a wickedly good looking car; the way the rear arches flare out. By all accounts, the car will scoot. But with a V8 (or some acoustic witchcraft to make it sound like one) it would have been perfect. |
