That's concerning when you take a 440 and it's faster than the times being shown for the G8x in either regular or Comp versions! It shouldn't even be a contest between the two. So I'll be really curious to see some true testing with these new M's because if those 3.5 second times for the M440 are true, that's faster than BMW's claimed times for these G8x's! Even if the actual test times prove to be mid-3 seconds, the gain in performance is next to nothing over these "M" versions of the 3 and 4 series... pathetic.
Again: RWD vs AWD

The folks that buy the RWD versions of the G8X are not after 0-60mph times.
