CSL-Fanatik · 12-17-2007, 03:37 AM

Hey all,

I know it is not in the US yet, but to give you some more teasers:

Don't kill me if it is a repost.

Best regards,

CSL

He has to learn how to "gear" ... the clutch won't resist a long time i believe!

UltimateBMW · 12-17-2007, 06:46 AM

It's an IB!

Where's Epacy?

Epacy · 12-17-2007, 07:38 AM

That is probably Swamp's car.

jtown · 12-17-2007, 12:50 PM

Wow mean. I like the 2nd vid when he floors it. Throaty.

aerisolphaln · 12-17-2007, 01:04 PM

That may be the best looking interlagos we've seen to date. The thing looks beautiful in those lighting conditions.

nusevad · 12-17-2007, 01:58 PM

awesome, the 2nd video rocked!

12-17-2007, 02:33 PM

damn that guy cannot drive.

Drive_right · 12-18-2007, 12:01 AM

I like that color.

TC M3 · 12-18-2007, 12:22 AM

That guy has no idea how to drive a manual car properly. The idiot should have learned in a vw first

Anybody notice the shift indicator in the orange display, just to the bottom right of the speedo, indicating when to change gear to achieve the lowest possible fuel consumption?

Nice

I'm surprised how easy it reaches 300kph on the speedometer... was the car delimited?

Yep, that's a joke recommending upshifts at about 2,000rpm...

Yes, it must be delimited. Probably the Driver's package...

I thought the Driver's package limited the top speed to 280km/h?

Either it's not very accurate or the speedo isn't, any idea which one it is, South?

Speedo's are allowed to overead by upto 10%, but are not allowed to underead AT ALL. Therefore an indicated 300km/h is more likely in reality about 273km/h.

The speedo isn't very accurate since it's reading fast (German law regulates that). Some say BMW told them 280kph + X, so maybe the limit isn't accurate either.

Yes, it's there to help you get in touch with your feminine side. It doesn't do it in "M"-mode, though.

The music puts even the Stig to shame. Nice, aggressive flashing of head-lights though!

Nice, but keep in mind the tach reading too fast.

Judging by the use of highbeam there was too much traffic for going 300, though...
