I agree on your points - too porky, stick should be available for AWD/RWD - comp or no comp, and DCT should have stayed but they love the ZF for everything now I guess.. must have gotten a great bulk deal

Lots to like, but just can't do that exterior styling (particularly the nose). Continued increase in curb weight, length, wheelbase, front heaviness - interested to see reviews on how it drives. It's gonna be fast though - no doubt with almost 100 HP more than the F80 base.

Wow, that's a heavy car! And the front end is a no-go for me. I get what they were trying to do, but it looks very Alfa Romeo-ish. Plus, I dislike the asymmetry of the front ACC sensor

Not to mention that the carbon fiber seats with the carbon fiber nut buster in the front portion of the seat cost 15k. CF seats in a 911 T, 718 GT4, T, Spyder, GTS 4.0 911 GT3 doesn't even cost that much (5,900 to be specific) |

You still can't get the seats separately so you have to spend at least 7k for them. |

Can we please quit the talk about design and start talking about the almost 450lb increase in weight?! Like what were they thinking? I wonder where all this weight comes from

Yes, if you notice they say they are only available with other optional equipment. Carbon package starts at 7k and the ultimate is 14k

Is it true that you can update the base manual to comp power level via OTA? Like new MPPK? Also, I found some lit that says something about mild 48v hybrid on lci but not sure if already built in... guess it will coincide w amg release

Also looks like any of the available 19/20" wheel options will be available on EITHER of the M3/M4 base (6MT) or Competition cars.

Interesting. I actually want the carbon exterior etc more than I want the buckets anyway, will wait and see what all of the prices are here though. It specced to £86k on the UK site and I don't want to spend more than $90k if I can help it
