What I'm really confused about is the comparisons that are being made. You have a car that costs $500 less than a RWD M340i with as close of a configuration that I can get. That comes stock with 6/4 piston brembo brakes, spec'd PS4 similar to the M3, magneride suspension with fully adjustable camber out to -2.5deg, a digital dash that provides more adjustable info than the ID8, whole set of drive mode options and traction management options similar to M3, a fantastic manual transmission, better brake/tire cooling management and better steering feel. Plus you get a free 2 day class with rooms at their Spring Mountain facility driving the same car you bought.
So, you get all of this for $500 less than a RWD M340i and because it doesn't beat the M3 in a straight line, it sucks. Which costs $14,500 more, optioned the same way. I like the current M3 and will probably have an LCI after I'm done with this car, but this thread is woah.

You're not getting a CT4V Blackwing for less than an M340. Most are going for 75K up to 90K
