I loved this car from the jump to be honest. My only gripe is that wait. I wish they just used lighter and possibly weaker batteries and just tune up the S68. Assuming the S68 is the same as it's predecessor (S63) it alone should be able to handle 727hp and 1000nm of torque. But hey I'm not the expert

[@xFlowRS]

This thing will make sure that used F90 prices stay high Edit (for NPC's that replied): Older, non-hybrid M cars will be sought after, considering the driving experience that they offer. I don't think that true BMW & M drivers appreciate 2.5 ton hybrids, regardless of their plastic bumpers. Unlike you, I actually drive G80 M3, so what I'm saying is coming from experience. I bet you bots don't have a licence, let alone a high performance vehicle.
