Any proof to that speculation

Seems pretty authentic to me.

I think it's real-time. If you look at the cockpit video sections, the clock on the lower left-hand side seems to move at normal speed when comparing it to the youtube timeline progress clock.

man that guy was moving!

What a boss. Beautiful driving.

I so missed hearing the transmission banging off shifts with the blat... Seems a bit old fashioned to drive a stick. Lol

Stunning how the car seems to dart so effortlessly into turns. This is definitely an aftermarket suspension, but even so, that chassis is incredible.

Nobody runs serious hill climb races on stock suspension n brakes. Thats a given.

The way the car turns on each corner, at speed, it looks surreal how grippy it is, surreal how it just doesn't roll or pitch...

i agree with #aksi comments...

It blows my mind that people on a new performance car forum don't know the difference between "brakes" and "breaks."

You don't need to be able to spell great to drive a great car?!

And a lot of people here are not native in english.

You put the dot on the inside of your last quotation mark. OMGZ the world is going to end!

ciressiws · 02-04-2015, 11:23 AM

Hill climbs are the only racing allowed since the accident at the Bern Grand Prix in the 1950"s.
As a Swiss expatiate and a BMW nut I wish I had seen this video a few month earlier. I could have driven the road when I picked up my 2015 M3 F80 in September in Munich.
After driving a somewhat modified 95 M3 for 19 years on the street and Performance events on the track as an instructor, I am glad I went with the DCT. Much quicker shifting.
We spent 4 1/2 weeks driving and hiking the Swiss mountains. Even beeing familiar with the roads, I was intimidated because of the narrow roads, very wide footprint of the car and the oncoming Post auto buses. The immense torque of the car has you use more road than you ever be comfortable with.
I cant wait to take it to Aotobahn in Joliet in spring at the first driving event of the Windy City BMW event.
(PS; I just hope my English is not to far off, but maybe my Germany was not perfect either. Just kidding)

You're right about driving a great car. I'm mostly surprised someone with the means and ability to afford such a car wouldn't be more educated or observant. Native english speaking or not, a person on such a forum would see brakes advertised and discussed so much they would have to be ignorant or careless, or both to not notice the difference.

I wouldn't fret if someone is obviously communicating in broken english, but most times it is apparent that the user is lazy or just doesn't care.

In the United States, punctuation marks always go inside of quotation marks. This is something that may be different in other regions.

A bit off-topic, sorry.

Sure, it's quite evident actually. I am really surprised no one else has noticed. Just watch the people moving in the background @ 1:50, 2:45, especially 3:10 you will see a man and child walking in the distance and you can clearly see the movements are unnatural. I didn't watch much past that as the fact that the publisher felt the need to include this subtle trickery completely ruined it for me. Otherwise I would have really enjoyed this vid.

Win = nice vid BigDog1250, thanks!

Fail = M4 sounds like highly tuned Snapper lawn mower.
