I placed my order more than 2 weeks ago and my dealer doesn't even have a quote until now...he said it will be the end of january until he knows more and that BMW got more orders than expected.
So much to: "what a ugly crap car nobody is going to buy it..." |

Btw, I have now a confirmed test drive in the Brand Experience Center for this Saturday.
If you want some additional pics besides the above ones and in the other thread, let me know |

1) Could you look at the tire & wheel size / combination? Winter tires? 2) Is the initial M checkup already done (oil + gearbox service)? How many kilometers / miles has the car? 3) What is your impression from the traction and wheel spin compared to your current M2? 4) What is your general handling impression when making harder turns while driving straight and into corners, through and out of corners? 5) What is your impression about the power of the car while driving from 50-100 mph and from 0-60 mph? 6) What is your impression about the ZF8 gearbox compared to your experience from an actual M DKG gearbox? 7) Do you feel any engine lag when accelerating while in different scenarios? How is the general response from the engine? 8) How do you experience the added weight compared to your experience driving lesser weight M cars? For sure only if you could, so feel free to cover any of these topics if possible... All cool! Thanks again and greets from Germany!! |

This video demonstrated the difference between 100-120lbs on F80 vs AMG C63 you'll be the judge.

As I said, weight is important, just that I don't get picking on weight alone and saying that the driving is going to be terribly inferior because of the weight. I'll say that I'm not a track rat, so my opinion lacks that insight and perspective, but for spirited street driving and canyon runs, my porker M4 is still a great vehicle, in spite of many people casting aspersions on how it drives based on its weight without ever having driven it. |

Using DIN weights: F80 DCT: 3604 C63S AMG: 4011 So, I see 400lb. Where are you getting "120lb" from? So on one hand people grossly overestimate the weight of the G8X and on the other they think the C63S is 300lb less than it is! Can we stick to the real world please? There are enough actual issues with any generation M3 to be fabricating others out of thin air
