I don't mind the sound at all - it somewhat reminds me of a mate's sleeper E36 M3 turbo.

Doesn't seem to be a slouch by any stretch of the imagination either... I reckon low 12's quite easily.

This thing is freaking quick! :praise:
0-100 +-4 seconds.
0-200 +-14 seconds

That is shunting and Properly!
Think there is more to come from this motor though. 35degree heat and it only having 2000km's as well.

The sound is awesome :inlove:

doesnt it have that artificial sound enhancement the m135i has?

The F10 M5 does, so my guess is the F80/82 will as well.

Not impressed at all.I put a stop watch on and this is only slightly faster than my F30ppk2 335i.
Remember M cars are limited to 262km/h true. :thumbdo:

Remember he short shifted 1st.. And car is brand new.. Will be without a doubt quicker than your car.. And will be better than any f30 in every other performance aspect. Straight line is one aspect. I await the reviews.

So 5 things:

1. Not sure what everybody expected in terms of performance, I expected this performance and its very quick even short shifting first gear.

2. All car companies are doing the sound through stereo system, they have to due to the higher insulation from the external world.

3. An M is not made for only straight line racing (I sound like a stuck record), the motor is going to be brilliant for track racing and due to its lightweight the car will be light years ahead of any non M car (M Performance included). If you have been following the interviews they have had with M engineers on this car, it truly is a step forward for M.

4. BMW power.

5. // M Power.

Hahaaaaa, 4 and 5 are cocopops trademarks!
Legendary!!! :thumbs:

As BMW Fanatics should know this car isnt built for straight line speed. 0 - 100 in just over 4 seconds is just a perk. Im sure with the new turbo's the car is gonna be able to get on the power much quicker out of the corners as you dont have to ref it to 6000RPM to get the most out of it like the straight six's of yesteryear.

Yes you might get beaten by a golf with a cone filter. and yes it might not be the roar of the V8 or the scream of the straight six but the M3/M4 is still gonna be the benchmark.

Dont bother racing the golfs (even KO4's) or RS's or AMG's (but go ahead and race Kimeran in his because his is special), rather take on a few Porsche's on the mountain pass tpo fully enjoy the capabilities of the ///M.

After all, thats what it was built for.

Hahaha aaaawwww :rollsmile:

The sad truth of Today tho, is that people only care about robot to robot or freeway races.
Nobody cares about track times etc.
Look at the amount of Golf R's rolling around killing 1M's, E92s, C63s etc and are super proud of it

I am a die hard M3 guy and love the new F80

Its just a matter of time till we see the full potential of this car. Its a ///M afterall

BMW , please catch a wake up and not display launch control active when doing crazy speeds, does not makes sense.

:flyfun:
