Drove both rides extensively today. F90 REALLY stands out as a LOT of car for the price point. Mine is now 13 months old. No rattles. Excellent OVERACHIEVER. Does it all.
TTS is wicked fast. Faster than I expected it would be. Fantastic handling , visibility, drive position, drive comfort. Only minor "ding" is, it's not as "solid" as the F90. Front A pillar started a buzzing rattle day 1. Now a rear clunk over transition strips, potholes, railroad tracks. I'll eventually find both, but all 4 BMW's I've owned have spoiled me being rattle free. All in, a really great GT . |

Agreed. I wish I could 1) comment on your comparison to the TT but I can't and 2) agree with you on the rattles; me and BMWs are just a rattlefest. Sigh, I'll live!

It has developed 2 already, yes.
The stigma I feel comes from past experience, nearly all of my M-cars (perhaps 7 or so over 5 years) had rattles of some kind. For most, I ultimately identified root cause and used the classic padded tapes where possible. The current ones come from the driver-side interior rear door (possibly the sun blind in the door). The other is from the driver's gauge cluster--these are the ones that typically require dealer intervention. But, I'll live: simply roll back the sunroof, put it in Sport+ and drive with vigor--what rattles! |

Another HP data point for you J :
RaceChip tuned a 991.1 Turbo S to 615 engine HP and dropped the 100-200 time to 6.39 seconds at Sea Level. Just measured mine at 6.41 pure stock at 3400ft. 2019 is definitely making more than 580 engine. |

Stock TPMS was 38/48 cold. 42/52 hot. 1.63 sixty ft. Pirelli.
Dropped to TPMS 35/38 cold. Did not check hot. 1.58 to 1.60 sixty ft. Dropped to TPMS 35/37 cold. 38/41 hot. Solid 1.58 sixty ft. Drove it back from lunch and launched another 1.58 sixty ft with a 6.70 !/8th mile at 104.93mph. Wicked fast for pure stock, no prep. Shame it came with Pirelli's. Would love to run it with Michelins. |
