That's understandable. Whenever there's a new generation vehicle, there's always a certain % of previous model owners who don't repurchase. They "age out" as they say in the marketing world. They're replaced by a mostly younger demographic who are more open to new advancements and technological improvements. You're happier with a heavier, less efficient, slower car. That's great for you.

EPS will get better, still in the early years of development. It one thing to say the M4 EPS is precise, I will still hold out on independent reviews about feel and feedback through the wheel. After all the M4 is not a GT3 and never will be. |

I went from E92 M3 to 335is to F10 M5 to E92 M3 with a 335i msport + ppk + pe as a daily driver
I came back to the S65 - I think the LCI feels more powerful and has enough torque for me especially if you drive it likes it's meant not like a b**** It is kind of like the bpy vs ccta in the the vw world... one is meant for low end torque and cost/fuel savings, the other you have to wring out higher The F8x will be easier to drive and I can foresee a lot of speeing tickets coming I think the engineers wanted to get close to the power of the S65 but with .25 more fuel savings - and there you have it and the weight savings is a plus. I also read somewhere that this engine and M4 convention were actually slated to come before... someone had a hand in bringing the S8/65 You can't go wrong with either or E9x or F8x - although I like the S65 better with the DCT and I would prefer the F8x with a manual And I would take a S54 in a heartbeat too - they are all M cars |

There is no way that Active Sound is not working on this car. Downshift noise is absolutely synthetic. You would not hear that sort of induction noise off load like that on a turbo car.
And "absolutely no" turbo lag? Comon. BMW is paying this guy. Don't get me wrong, the new M cars look great, but trying to clutch onto the good old days is something that comes off as a little ridiculous. It's a new era. It's ok--we know turbos have lag. It's inevitable.

That sounds pretty damn good on the inside if you ask me. This car just impresses more and more with each revealed aspect..

Just confirmed that there is some sound enhancement, but not in the same way as on the M5/M6. Will post more on this later.

Even the LFA has sound enhancement (through means of cabin acoustics) if this is the case, that's just fine. But if it is in any way synthetic, hmmm.

It's not as bad as on M5. Just confirming some details before publishing.
