They can along way, big improvement in last few years



I really hope it gets fully revealed at Frankfurt car show. Wish they would confirm so I can go there and see it in Person.
You haven't because almost nobody with ZFat cares enough about regularly tracking their cars. There's an M235i made to racing specs with Wagner intercooler at my local indy shop, and even then the car sometimes refuses to downshift after few hard laps.

Hey, as long as they shift faster than DCT, rev near 8,000 rpm and provide consistently instantaneous response to manual shifting I don't mind the torque converter.

This is their last pure ICE M3, and I sincerely hope that they make an uncompromised machine rooting from Motorsport.
