That being said, we all need to remember that getting faster is exponentially difficult especially in sub 4.0 seconds. |

I should have pushed the button in the M4 in Detroit, but they were nice enough to unlock the door for me and another forum member because we were prior M owners and I was ordering one.

So wait... E92m does 0-62 in 4 seconds? No mods? And now the f80m is also at or below 4 seconds? Hmmm ok then so a heavier less torque car does the same time at a light turbo charged car. These forums are just too funny...BMW is a liar :-)

What they are saying is that BMW quoted a 0-60 of like 4.6 for the e9x and it actually tested as low as 4.0. The f8x is quoted at 4.1 so it could conceivably be expected to be well below 4.0. But as some said , traction is a big problem with that low of times. The difference should be very substantial from a roll, and also seen in quarter mile trap speeds M3 and other bmws have almost always run faster times in tests than BMW quoted. |

No point was BMW's times are usually 0.3-0.5s slower than the actual times magazines do. So most likely the new car will do a lot quicker.

As long as I can remember, 0-60 times from BMW were conservative, generally what you'd get consistently with little or no wheel spin/ launch.

Tired of the "Toyota / GM" package model BMW has gone to. You used to be able to order the car the way you want it.
Now to get 1 thing, you have to ruin your entire car.....ridiculous. Was a huge part of the buying experience and thing that set BMW apart, and something that was another perk and reason to buy a BMW and spend the extra $$$. Not anymore.....smh Cheers, e46e92

Back up camera
Not sure why you need rear PDC with the camera? I hate the bumper nipples.
