Do you really need to read what motor trend says? Whatever Johnny says means nothing. We know this car will deliver. We know what it will do.

The reason you want to read reviews is because no one here has driven the thing. Instead, you want to go by you "knowing" it will deliver (whatever that is)?

What “that” is means if you have driven and owned high performance cars you know which will do the business. Do you need a review on the 765LT? No. You know what it does. When I buy a car I know what I am getting just by seeing the specs. I have never test driven a car or liter bike before buying. Just a few I have owned: 09 M3/13 M5/16 M5/18 M3/20 X3m/13 ZL1/15 Z28/18 + 18 ZL1 1LE/10 S1000rr, etc.

I do respect those that want or need a review. I don’t need a review though. That’s my answer.

When he hits the hood with that spotlight you really see the orange hue. Horrible color, but easily one of the most aggressive cars ive ever seen. The anticipation I had to get my G80 eclipses the anticipation I've ever had for any car (once ordered) in my life.

Until this exact moment I really had NO IDEA how high the side bolsters are....can't wait to see my future passengers try and get in and out of the CF Buckets.

I thought the same thing when I watched this. It really hit me how high they are. I'm ready for the challenge.

Can’t wait for the dealer service department to drag ass on the way into the car for service leaving behind leather wrinkles.

What color did you go for with your IoMG? I have Silverstone Buckets with Fire Orange.

Kyalami Orange full leather. I saw samples of both at my dealership before I place the order.

Silverstone in FO will look nice.

Fanboy much?

MotorTrend is not the first that comes to mind...But I digress...I don't doubt that it will deliver, for me the question really is; how much?
And yes true auto journalism can help answer this question.

Many people will drink that BMW Kool-Aid, I'm not one of them...

I love the looks, I love the seats, I love the 6MT, and I've owned or at least driven every generation of M3 except the E30. I am not a fanboy, I just know the car will drive well and I was more than happy to take my dealer's first allocation.

EDIT: I actually am a huge fanboy.
