Sluggish responding ZFat in an M3. Not buying the DCT torque logic when F10 M5 made 700 lb ft at the crank.
Presumably returning to steel driveshafts and depressingly not-over rear fenders of G80, which corners will they cut next with the Mexican M2? Very excited.

I bet half the new generation of M employees don't even know how to heel start a manual car. Quote:
You have to manually adjust the knob inside the hub so it grabs around 3-4 clicks. Works fine after that.

[IMG]http://tro-nik.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/20.jpg[/IMG] F8x Carbon Ceramic Rear Calipers - Standard Hand Brake [IMG]https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7558/...37339df3_c.jpg[/IMG] This applies to standard non-CCB brakes as well. BMW & Audi uses electronically adjusted caliper pistons that lock the rotor when activated. That's why on most exotic cars you see two calipers mounted in the rear, the smaller one being independently used for Parking. As far as I know, MB AMG is the only one who still uses electronic axle lock for the park brake, allowing them to have electronic park brake and sealed rear calipers. Early F01 750's had the same concept but it was flaw'd. MB has way more experience with BBK's so I'm not surprised they have it all under control. |

the render is based on the g20. Not a big fan of this render, bit it is really close to their design language at the moment.

Hmmm if I had to guess how this conclusion was made I would have to say... Looking at the photo... it hard to explain.

100% agree, have owned e36, e46, e82, e90, and now F30 340i, and the E90 generation is by far my least favorite BMW has ever made. E90 were the "okayest", and their interiors are so awful with that flat plank dashboard, total divergence from the classic BMW driver slanted dash. Those Chris Bangle years were just a design disaster, further confirmed by how poorly they age. even though I owned one, and it was an ok car, it was never truly great. like my F30 much much more.

Shift Lever
I like that the Shift Lever looks like it's going to be some kind of rubberized material, something with a important tactile grip and feel instead of some kind of cheesy glossy slippery plastic.

All this dislike of the electronic handbrake cracks me up. The 991.2 Manual GT3 has an electric handbrake and somehow it didn’t change anything I thought or felt about actually driving it. Nor has any car reviewer even cared to mention it.
The M3 is about driving. And damn, this one looks good from behind so far! I’m all in. |

I bet this forum will make me upgrade from my f80 to the new m3/4. And I don't want to do it. I don't think the new model will be drastically different - been a customer of BMW for a while now and as much as I love f80, it made me realize I want to try other brands. I m afraid this forum with these pictures and news and marketing catch will make me buy bmw again... please stop this news. Let's talk about rod beating issues in e90 please...
