Get over yourself. What do you think the guys in more expensive/faster/better cars than the M4 say about you?

I've encountered my share of asshats in M cars......and every other brand out there. Douchebags come in all shapes and sizes. Your comment about what someone else drives gives M car owners the reputation they have.
So were not special?

Are you tuned? Just curious.

340 can keep up decently. Granted stock for stock you're still over 100+ hp over him.

Also what mode are you guys driving your DCT in when you do these challenges?

D3 full sport+ or is there a better setting? D3 seems to punch harder and hold longer RPM, but it's significantly more harsh than D1 or 2.

Just making sure I'm doing it right lol

My M1 is my casual setting and M2 is balls to the wall mode. D3 full sport+ I'm assuming that's the setting to be in.

Not tuned. I have a hard enough time getting power to the wheels stock. My wife drives a 340. It's fast but it's not even close to the ///M.

I'm a Sport+ across the board kinda guy. I didn't get this car to put it in grandpa mode

I would have bought a Lexus or Merc if I desired that.

This!

I can barely freaking put the power down in first and second...stock! Add a tune....NO

In fact, I *Expect* to lose any drag race from a dead start. Where we kill it is mid-range, period.

Wasn't so much asking about the sports+, more was asking about the drivelogic modes. I'm in sport+ 99% of the time as well but I alternate between the drivelogic modes pretty much all settings. D2 is the happy medium, D3 is more like full track/redline 24/7 mode lol.

In fact sports+ and D2 is my normal setting. D3 is a little too jerky for normal driving imho. But if someone is up my ass it's D3 all day long

MB Cx3 AMG - silver haired gent who was nice enough to let me cut in on a right turn in traffic who later pulled even at a light and wanted to have a go. Didn't take the bait, so he either went home with a smile on his face gloating or was disappointed he didn't get me to bite.

2016 R1 on the 15 South. I have no issues with 600cc, but when it comes to liter bikes it's a different story. Super cool rider though, I was on 100 octane race gas map 7 JB4 with FBO and put up a good fight

The Genny Zone is so real in my hood, that even though I never heard the term, I immediately caught the reference. Death before Hyundai.

Early 2000's Toyota Highlander pulled up next to me on highway, beeped horn 3x, and took off. It must have taken at least 5 sec to put a car length on me as I maintained my 75 mph cruising speed. I was amused.

I was driving down the road today, and a Lamborghini Aventador Super Veloce (SV) drove by. Yes, it wasn't just any Aventador; it was an SV. Hard to believe since any Lamborghini is a rare site around here, but the fact that it was an SV is simply mind blowing...

We really didn't race each other, but we drove with each other for a couple miles. The sound of that car, especially when he was down shifting, was utterly amazing. An Italian symphony of delight.

I was on my way home from work and decided to take the back roads with lots
of twisties. I see a BMW 550 M sport in front of me trying to put some distance
between him and I. So I wasn't going to have any of that so I am on his tail.
Finally i see an opportunity so I pass him so I put the car in M sport and pass him. He tries to keep up and does a decent job but I still left him behind.

I get trucks here all the time, almost daily. It is humorous.... really dude, in a pickup?? The other constant offender are the Challenger / Charger RT's. My M4 absolutely destroys these things, it's not even fun anymore, I just let them be. Civics and lots of Japanese cars with exhausts. I have had 4 M's and 3 P cars, and this M4 attracts 10x the people wanting to race. I don't know if the Active Autowerk plate frame encourages or discourages people, but it is crazy. I control myself 95% of the time.

Yeah not worth it...Don't waste the gas, you know and they know you're faster, they just need to try to feel better in the moment. 95% is pretty good self control!

Big old snarling lifted truck with truck nutz and a giant American flag in the bed tried to race me at several stop lights. I beat him to the next light twice.
Silently.
