I have been tracking an m235iR around waiting for my g80 arrive. It has the ZF8. The way it behaves I never even think once about the transmission. Does what I want, when I want. g80 is going to be a big fat beast that probably eats up tires, especially if i drive it to similar aggression as this m235iR, which is such a fun platform. m2cs cup tho with the selecting power would be even more amazing.
