Or a Porsche. The acceleration figures for the new Boxster/Cayman/911 are staggering. MotorTrend ran the new Carrera S PDK 0-60 in 3.1s and the 1/4 mile in 11.5. Hell, Car & Driver got the base 911 stickshift 0-60 in 4.0s.

Whether BMW goes all-wheel drive or not, they need to steal some of the Porsche engineers that programmed their PDK launch control system to simplify the engagement and improve the results, because the system BMW uses in their rear wheel drive M's sucks by comparison.
