no M Mirrors. That is a first. I knew there is no CF roof. I don't like the front bumper and really dislike the rear bumper. I was hoping this would look more along the lines of the M3/M4. I'm disappointed.

I'm hugely disappointed. It doesn't weigh any less than a m3/4, has less power, no CF roof, and who else knows what it's lacking just yet. No thanks.

They should've made this car weigh 3200-3300lbs with the same power as the m3/4 and same available options.

Sounds very nice but I was hoping for it to be heaps better than my N55 + PPK + PE car. It's better but not HEAPS like how an E9X M3 sounds HEAPS better than the M4.

I happen to like the sound of an M4, but maybe that is because I own one.

Definitely better than an M4 but no chance compared to the good old V8. That's why even BMW used the sound of the S65 in the M2 Launchfilm hahaha

See that? the S65 will always be known for its music. I really don't know why BMW tuned the S55's sound that way.

Going off on a tangent here but I'm still wishing that BMW made an E89 M coupe/roadster using the S65 with the M3 GTS brakes + suspension.

That would be a dream!

Sounds familiar.


Want to say this 135i sounds louder and better and it's recorded out on the street vs a enclosed studio.
