I think the DCT is the better transmission for this particular car. I found S2 to be telepathic with my driving habits and even when the transmission was too grabby, it was predictable and easy to mitigate with M1 and M2 settings. |

Point is, what makes any one system of a car good is a blend of numerous characteristics and thus is multi dimensional. Steering feel is only one element of 'great' steering. Finally, I can feel exactly what the front end is doing. I can feel it push when I'm too heavy on the throttle. I can place the car precisely where I want it on the road at any point through the turn. I know exactly when I can push harder and when I'm pushing too hard. I have not driven it off the road due to lack of feel and I drive this thing near the limit. Could the road feel be better? Sure, but there's enough to to drive the car super hard, effectively, safely and enjoyably. So what if other cars have more steering feel? That said, good discussion. I can appreciate your point of view even though I may not quite agree or fully understand. Last edited by EricSMG; 11-06-2018 at 10:11 PM.. |

As much of an instant gratification person as I typically am, with the details you shared re: not being able to get the color you want and the spec you want... I'd wait.
I look at this as one of those "good problem to have" situations. You drive an F80, you're considering a new F80, or the next-gen platform. So essentially no matter what happens you're winning haha - good luck! |

All good points hooligan317... I'm gonna stick it out and enjoy my current F80 and all the complements I get about my Tanzanite Blue . Hardly any on the road which makes it more special.
