right.. and the CTS-V falls behind the audi.. lol
wow! you can't be serious !? I'm an audi fanboy but I can't see them doing anything in a near future that can touch this car. Maybe they will have a twin turbo 6 in the future since they have
one in the macan now.
The only thing that's bothering me with the new M3-4 is the amount of options and the price. Does a M3 needs ceremic brakes ? WOuld it need all the carbon bits if it wasn't this huge ?
Does it need to cost more than a 100k ? It's now in the same price range as the new cayman and close to a 991.
Maybe the little brothers are just doing too well so they need to push this gen a bit further. But for me it is still a 3 series :dunno:
I hope it's a big hit and MB and Audi step up their game as well.
oh yeah and fuck those bumpers.. pretty hideous.

Le son est pas pareil que le V8 d'avant mais les voitures sont vraiment belle! Good job BMW!

Comme la M5 avec les sons de moteur simulés!!
The sound isn't simulated. It's amplified.

Volkswagin font la même affaire, tu as un genre de cornet qui part du moteur et qui va se coller au firewall. Ce sont des voitures tellement isolée que ça coupe le son pas mal.
it is simulated :
from car and driver.. "M division engineers discovered that the F10 chassis, like that of so many other new cars these days, is so effective at insulating the cabin from road and engine noise that the M5 lost one of the characteristics that made the previous two iterations such visceral thrills to let off the leash: its bark. To give the driver a better feel for the engine, an exterior recording of the M5’s motor plays through the car’s stereo. The precise sample is determined by engine load and rpm. Some of the real engine notes are still audible to the driver, so the recording is more of a backing track. BMW says the setup helps the driver shift by ear and reduces the chances of bumping the rev limiter when using the full rpm range. "
