    I hate that comfort is even a line item when discussing halo race car versions.

    Caring about comfort is what is what has led to these guys getting more lame by the generation.

    My biggest complaint with the M5 is despite being a beast is it didn’t feel like it, back to back though results are not even close my C63 felt a ton faster, sounded better, way more engaging drive.

    I was teasing. I know you wouldn't buy the base ***shudder*** model of anything.

    If you can't use a halo race car for hauling around your real estate clients, while not swerving around aspen potholes, then what is the world coming to?

    Those M badges are very very important for closing that sale, that’s why you need to keep them clean.

    Also before I'm accused of "brigading" these threads, yes I am jealous and yes I'd buy one if I could afford it. I think Brad knows it's all in fun, or doesn't care, or probably both.

    The big M cars have basically filled the niche that Buick used to.

    Someone must have taken his internet away. It's not normal to see him not posting 1500 times a day

    I was in Edmonton over the weekend and popped into Bavaria as they have just received the latest M4 and M3. Both in black, and both look good in the flesh although i still prefer the M3. It was also fitted with some nice M-performance carbon bits, including the new ~$9k carbon buckets. Beautiful seats, but would definitely be a little tough with to live with everyday. Of all the cars at the dealer, a blue M2CS with carbon ceramics and gold wheels stole the show in my eyes.

    According to journalists, this car is the best thing since sliced bread. Apparently the suspension is just unreal.

    The CS is incredible. But it’s also a solid 25-30k premium right now.

    M3 and M4 both hideous. Even in black.

    Its true. When I saw the M340i I figured these new M variants would look great. Ill never understand who signed off on this shit. Will be interesting to see what sales numbers are like. Performance looks amazing, looks are worst of all time. What will the impact be I wonder

    I'm standing firm in my view that looks won't hold this thing back, and lots of the people that hate on it now will grow to either become indifferent or actually like it.

    I am leaning your way. Giant grilles are not just a BMW thing as others makers have started this trend.
    I almost think it's a rebellion against Tesla, but I'm no anti-vaxxer.

    Nothing stopping anyone from buying one, there are several sitting on the lot. And they just came out.

    I would buy one. I am thinking about one actually but might go a different route. But every review I have seen on these states that they are much better in person than in pictures.
