Very smart!

I'd love a go in one of these. I'd hoped it was like an S on steroids.

Get rid of the Conti's ASAP and put Michelin Pilot sports on. Ok, well wear the COnti's out first, then put on PS's. YOu won't regret it. The Conti's just aren't up to the job.

I'd be interested to see how it compares to my M3.

Nice car - my preference would've been for tan interior though. Impressive performance !

good write up

I've heard similar views expressed

the coupe is similarly oddball to its predecessor

and equally the best looking model in the range
