Is it safe to say
M is back? I think the steering complaints and sound will be corrected with the CS and updated... higher performance versions Side Note: For all those complaining about the exhaust I wonder if this is the upgraded or stock. It actually doesn't sound bad at all. Awesome find CarbonFibre asiflicious NYAWE60 VCP https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_c...&v=WI2WuVizFuU I will stand by my previous comment feedback can and will be added( Its all computer programming) ,unfortunate the 1st buyers will get the shaft. Just as the iterations of the F80 have gotten better. Last edited by DocWeatherington; 12-04-2017 at 07:30 AM.. |

Beautiful Car, I wish that they would cut it out with the piped in exhaust noise though. Test drove a M550 x drive and the exhaust was horrendous. If I am going to drop 120k on a car I want it to sound properly mean.

I don't think steering will be fixed and exhaust is fixable at all. Thru F80/82/87 revisions, BMW already know how to make electronic steering a little better. M5 being what it is now is BMW's intention.

If Porsche can do EPS correctly, no reason why BMW can't. I bet you 20 USD that as the editions come out the car will improve. The last and current gen M5, M3 its always been the CP is how it should have come from the factory. Now out with the CP please, quickly so you can take my money. |

It's on purpose that I put these comments... Some (the older demographics) will find the car over complicated. The gadget lovers will love it...

Sounds like they have done a cut and paste job of the initial F8X reviews.
Nobody likes the sonic enhancement. All car journos want 8 cylinders. Blah. Blah. Blah. But oh yeah it's also a fantastic car that drives superbly. It would be nice if the initial reviewing cadre could get past the car they used to love at some other time (nostalgia) and learn to love the car that is there.

Sadly, I'm still waiting for something from the M divison that makes me feel the way I used to in my past M cars. I remember being so excited about what was coming next. Now I find myself looking for reasons why to stay with the brand. Maybe the M2 is as good as it gets now for that special feeling. |
