Love your ride bud.
I was just wondering if it's worth having a car with all that power in Australia - unless you tracking all the time.
I say this because after my nephew moved there a few years back he lost his license within the first 6 months and he was driving a Camry. I know speeding laws are not meant to be broken but we all open our m cars every now and again hoping not to get caught. At least here in SA up to 160 it's just a ticket and if you get caught doing over 200 you might get out of it depending who the officer is.
Worst case scenario spend a few hours in the chookies and pay a hefty fine.
I would hate to buy an m car especially the competition pack and be afraid all the time to tap that throttle.
Unless I am wrong and maybe you guys also have certain roads and times where you guys can thrash the cars.
The laws are quite strict here. 110km/hr is the limit almost everywhere. 30 over and it's instant dismissal.
There are a few quiet places to test the car but nothing like you describe in SA.
This is a weekender for me so I have a q7 as my runabout. I just enjoy driving her as its a bit of an occasion every drive. I plan to track twice a year.
It's quite easy to lose your license in just about any vehicle.
It's been a 20 year dream to own an M car. So far it hasn't disappointed.
