I think the debate now is power to weight ratio, just how much carbon fiber is in it, will it have the 8 M-DCT or 7 as suggested before, electric third turbo? and will it smoke a carrera s or C7 vette. Oh and will they offer AWD for icier climates.

And hopefully it comes with ethanol resistant injectors and hpfp
Highly doubt it would out run c7 or 991 s. But m3 is a m3. If perf figures were all about it, nobody wouldve bought e9x, since boss302 mustang could out run it on the track.
Also if you need awd for climate or extra safety, go get audi. Missing the whole point on M cars..
