I think it sounds shit, is gonna steer like any tall vehicle and by all accounts thus far, has a bone shaking ride.

And to go way off topic, I don't think I like any current BMW outside of the M140i.

All of the X cars are now obnoxious, outside of maybe the X3.

The 8 is an overpriced 6
The 7 is hideous
The 6 is now a 5 series GT
5 is too big
4 has weird proportions outside of the M4
New 3 series, meh, maybe the 340i is gonna be cool.
2 series, still an odd looking car with something off about the proportions.
1 Series, now FWD.

The M5 isn't as cool as an E63s

The M4, I'm still on the fence due to the S55

I drove the M2 Comp and while it is an effective instrument, the steering feel is disappointing, the engine sounds rubbish, it really doesn't like being revved out, it drives like a diesel with a slightly wider power band which completely distorts your sense of pace, the N55 in the standard M2 sounds way better.
The synthesised engine sound is almost insulting.
Also, there is quite a lot of road noise.

I reckon if I was shopping for a current gen performance car, it'd be the C63s.

And breath
