I live in Germany and have driven my M3 on the AutoBahn many of times. Unfortunately, I can't open it up until after I do my break-in service

For reals..

What it lacks in subjective aesthetics, it sure does makes up for it in performance..

Which is not surprising because I remembered that the M340i hauled ass on the freeway, so naturally, the M version would top that, in tenfolds..

There goes my driver's license..

Canada is the same, 401 jam packed with crv, or corrollas road ragers and brake checkers doing 20 under limit. The right lane is the fast lane till you get someone from the justice league in a cadillac trying to block you.

Typical canada. Underlying rage.

Yeah same shit here in Finland, toyota corolla and nissan qashqai drivers blocking both lanes and if you have a chance overtake they start flashing high beams etc. Sorry

Funny how testdrivers mistook the ZF8HP for a DCT when BMW first used it in the M135i for example... and now they all can "feel" a delay... at the same time the car should not gain weight if possible and yet they want the DCT which is heavier...

Awesome review showcasing how planted and in control the G8x is. No wonder people are crashing this car left and right. You probably feel invincible the way it handles high output.

Give me the extra 70lbs and the DCT any day of the week. The way the old 135is and 335is DCT's feel is absolutely nothing like the one in my F10.

Much love for the guys at Autotopnl. Can't wait until they review their manual one.

And in regards to cruising in the left lane. The law actually mandates that you drive in the rightmost lane at all times unless you are passing. You can get fined for lane hogging.

Sooo when can we get some carbon fiber bracing under the hood? S58 is obviously a masterpiece of an engine, but there is no visual drama to go with it. Does anyone know if BMW is working on this for upcoming model years? S55 spoiled us in that department...
