ANYWAYS, BACK TO THE OP TOPIC....

DISLIKES:
- I dont like that its longer by a few inches (we dont need bigger cars)
- I dont like that its a 6 cyl TT vs. a small NA v8
- I dont like that the redline is almost 1000rpm less
- I dont like that the DCT is now 80lbs heavier vs. old DCT was only 40 lbs. heavier
- I dont like the rear bumper design + the reflector placements

LIKES
- I like that its lower 1" and wider 2.5"
- I love the torque being 111 lbs ft more
- I love the shaped CF roof on the sedan
- I like the interior and all the new technology (except the nannies of course = lane departure = lame departure = lol)
- I like the exterior design
- I love that the weight is down from the e90m3 (less weight = more fun)

Looks like I'll be trading in my F10M5 for this.
I recently drove an F30 diesel with M package and it had the same torque as my old e90m3....i was very mpressed with the chassis stiffness and suspension compliance....and of course the weight vs. torque feel.
Based on that car and these preliminary F80M3 specs (eegh...why is it not called an F30M3 again?)....this upcoming car should be a phenom.
