Makes you wonder why BMW keeps bringing that E90 M3/CRT on the 'Ring....difficulties in getting the new car to out-perform the old??

I'm convinced that the F80 will not sound as good and not pull so hard towards the redline. It will be different but still very good. I hope for a nice muted growl, minimum lag and an ability to hold power towards the redline + the fat FI midrange. If that's what we will get I'm fine with that. Not as awesome as the S65 in many ways but good enough and frankly all what we can expect from FI.
