Joe, I agree with you, your points are obvious. However, it is assumed by most that the 0-60 times are the maximum achievable, when we know that its a conservative figure published by the company. So it -is- a joke if you think that the published or official car manufacturer times are representative of peak times, which is what people are taking them to be. People are comparing two different figures. They are taking an m4 time quoted by a company rep, and comparing that to a 'best of' time pulled by a magazine on an e92. The assumption is that the rep is quoting the conservative time, so it will be under that.
