This. I'm not here to hate on the car itself but marketing strategy is a bit odd. It's like they are going for a younger crowd but forgetting that the MSRP is nearly $80k when optioned. Maybe they are hoping to catch those people that fell in love with F&F when they were younger when it first came out? But I feel like those people, like myself, have refined their taste over time and don't really respond well to this type of marketing. This type of racer boy F&F image is what has kept me away from certain cars in the past.

Then again, this is my take, and it's likely a bad take, as I can only speak for myself.

All that said, the last few seconds is 100% of the 6MT vs DCT threads on the F80 section lol.
Maybe the young YouTube crowd because most of the young people I know don't have 80k to drop on a car.

Or maybe targeted to the mid-life crisis guys/girls.
