Just not a fan of the high spoiler and the wheel color. I'll take everything else.

it's only one tenth faster than the non-GTS M4. it's an impressively capable car - I'm just saying picking a 0-60 stat understates how incredibly fast it is.

I didn't like those things either, but that's when I realized that I didn't "get it". Both the spoiler and design of the wheels are essential to achieving all these numbers you are seeing. They're purpose driven.

Come on meow. Not even fair. Giulia is not in the same league as a GTS. Not even the same zipcode.

And that time they published is still unconfirmed BTW. All marketing hot air as far as we know.

Dubbed sounds and slow driving accelerated on computer is annoying as hell.

Ok, just watched the video and was disappointing. I expected much more from a professional production company. This was cool at the level of a hobby producer, armed with a few starter drones. But not a professional production, and certainly not for a car of this magnitude.

And for the love of all that is sacred, please, stop showing footage of a car braking and drifting, matched to a soundtrack of a car accelerating and up-shifting! Not cool. Not professional. Not at this level. Where's your game BMW?

I didn't mind the footage. I thought some shots were beautifully framed. The motion graphics and pseudo tech graphics were the worst I've seen in years. If an intern at my studio did that, I'd ask him/her to leave and find a new career.
