And lets see how the brakes hold up on the F8x at the track, especially the CCB. .

Neither did the 1 M which is selling like hotcakes to all the fanboys at a high price premium. Nor do the X5M or X6M. The F80 isn't really breaking any new grounds in terms of an M car with turbos.

After having (3) N63's (1) N55 and (1) N18 , I would concur in saying they all can be temperamental.

I also thought at one point that a Z06 was a cool car... until my friend gave me a ride in his! Performance ain't everything!

Like many others here, the sound is a lot of what makes the experience of this car fantastic. Would be hard to give that up. Quote:
And I'll be even more content once I finally get test pipes (or a full exhaust) and a tune!

Although, I love European Cars (pretty much my preference) and certain Japanese Cars as well. I grew up being exposed to 302's, 350's, 351's, 396's, 454's etc...
The S65B40 allows me to "albeit loosely" pay homage to the cars with the aforementioned engine variations (especially on cold start), in a right sized - for me at least - euro coupe with equal parts luxury/rawness. Put it this way perhaps F80 as an "addition" never a replacement

The car looks a bit cheap from the outside, but that can go, but then I jump inside and it's just the crapiest interior I've sitted in since my friends Sunfire in highschool, that's not OK at all, and finally I went for a ride and the car felt like a boat on the highway, like the steering was not connected to the wheels and the wheels were not connected to the road! Overhall a big dissapointment of a car(judged on my personnal criteria)!
