Even Chris Harris says it's a statement of fact that manufacturers give the press different cars than what the production versions will be.

So not to rain on anyone's parade, but let's wait and see what real customers start getting in a couple of months.

I have confirmation from people within the tuning industry that the "Press Tune" is not a urban myth for the F10 M5. It's the basis for the ONLY software remap available for the F10.

I have NO idea about the F8x though. But as posted above, the only customer delivered F8x we know of did a 8,8s 0-100 time.
