Just drove it 1 hour ago, literally the same car (competition), same color, same wheels same everything! The car is an absolute beast. Interior is sexy as hell, the outside is sexy as hell aswell (I like the grill a lot tbh). The way it goes from 0 - 200 in a matter of seconds is brutal.

@@AutoTopnl ZF8 does not belong in M3.

[@gavcom4060]

@@ndj4267 the only drawback the zf8 brings is slightly less response in manual mode, slightly slower shift times, and maybe slightly more drivetrain loss. other than the first reason, the other two reasons are barely, if not, not even noticeable. now if you want a good performing transmission that is as smooth as a torque converter, but as fast shifting as a dct, merc’s MCT is the answer

[@jamesblond1100]

@@AutoTopnl It is not as exciting as the previous one BUT I never liked the slow change to reverse gear and sometimes at lower speeds it had a kind of hiccup... so I am happy with the new one. I just dont know which color to chose for the new M4. This brooklyn grey looks a bit boring in real life and you can see finger prints everywhere. But a lighter color is a must to see the contrast with all the black accents. So maybe the famous yellow...

DCT changed due to reliability and budget reasons. For me I can sacrifice a tiny bit of performance for better normal performance in M3 - M3 often used as a family supersedan. What can be considered a positive for some is more shift feel compared to the dct train like shifting... For me better even though really some performance is down just a tiny bit.

Cars drive straight without wheel input. The more speed the straighter it wants to drive, least resistance. Reaction time without hands is not that much worse too. I remember though when I first started driving how frightening it was letting go of the wheel. With time you get the feeling for it and it makes no difference to you whether you hold it or not as long the road is safe and you don’t have to turn.
