Its amazing that one guy gets his car and posts some pics and some vids and the whole forum turns upside down.
+1

plus sharp angles do not aged well...that also goes for the new C7 ...

then it would at least be something special like the E92 m3 engine was.

Well, we know the M4 won't be in the 911 Turbo S or GTR territory by any means. The new m3/4 might be around the straight line performance of a 991S or C7 Vette but won't touch them on the track.

And the Z28 barely beat the Turbo S given it had semi slick race tires with a 60 tread ware compared to the turbo S' 220 tread ware. Equal tires the Porsche beats it easily.
