Maybe your more of a Dodge Hellcat guy.... If you want the most power for the best price that's the only choice. No judgment, they are bound to be a great head turning car with all the noise your looking for.

Oh, they make one of those too. But, it is faster than your super duper base M3 too.
556hp and 551 lb-ft torque. It also beat your M3 in it's own backyard on the Ring.






Let's get back to the Lexus RC-F

[///ADMAN]

Anyone heard when the Lexus RC-F is officially hitting the dealerships?
I know Mike Farrier had one on the Smoking Tire. Any others?

[M3 Esq]

LOL at the lack of respect for each other's BMWs on here.

[mti]

I actually like the RC-F... will wait to hear what the reviewers have to say.

[Andrew115]

I would hate to clean out the bugs from that RCF grill.

And vomit from passing bystanders horrified by that grill.

[WAY]

1800kg, 467hp, 0-60 in 4.4. Not earth shattering numbers.

Somebody has to come out with a new front clip or grill insert.

Yep, even if it were a better car than the m3/4 I am not sure I could get past the look of the front.

The interior tho looks pretty nice (as expected) hope they didn't blow the R&D budget fitting in elements of the LFA display into this car, I think the smart money here is investing in the HUD.

After having a HUD for awhile I don't think I can get another vehicle without it for DD use, darn thing is addicting.

It's a BMW forum, many true auto enthusiasts who can appreciate great automobiles for what they are, but sadly lots of trolls and you know what as well...

...see what I mean

[///ADMAN]

I did an Extended Test Drive in the new C7 Corvette and it had HUD as well. The only problem I found was,
when the seat was all the back, the image would overlay part of the front hood. If it was just MPH and GEAR, it was fine.
But, I agree...it is something I didn't think I would want before. But, I found myself looking at it constantly.

What is with the stitching on the Corvette dash? It looks like a kindergartner did it and got out of the lines

[///ADMAN]

It's GM. What did you expect?
