Take your pick, Chevy or Ford. Alfa, we'll leave out the discussion. Is the m4 even better than a 1le camaro SS for 25,000 more. I think the m4 is a great car, but preference and brand loyalty seem to be just as important as cost and performance I guess.

The rules apply to the entire car industry, thus everyone will use whatever tech to fullfill those norms, but it is just a stopgap towards the EV.

I bought M-DCT considering I have had been given the choice of many new configurations for weeks on end and I simply prefer the way the DCT holds on to boost while shifting vs the 6 speed manual. If the car was NA I'd go for the stick, otherwise it is DCT all the way. |

Vote with your wallet because ICE is on its way out so hurry and buy a gas car while you still can. That Roaster is no joke. |

All I can say is fuck all this bullshit electrification crap! I want a lightweight NA car that I can track all day fast without overheating... Sure add more power to compensate for weight but tires and pads get eaten up faster with heavier car and heavier cars need to be differently on the track.. Not as much fun.. Fuck this shit

You love electric cars and that's great. Some of us love driving and that's gonna be lost (with BMW) in the not too distant future. BMW's aren't what they once were and most of us on these boards have known this for quite some time. Don't get me wrong fellas I'm a fan but things aren't looking good at least from my perspective. One of the members on here just got back from ED and said that BMW is plastering "mobility" everywhere as their new ///Marketing strategy. Ultimate driving machine is gone. Sad but true. |

Like Cuz5150 above I love to go out every day and look at my Z4 M Roadster (which is in storage right now for the winter) as it is a fantastic Driving Experience. At the same time I'm happy to be able to look right beside it and see my X4 35i M-Sport with every bit of technology in the world and know that it is an incredibly capable and safe vehicle. For those of us that grew up in the analog age, we long for vehicles that you actually have to drive and we wish that the manufacturers would bring some of those vehicles back. My challenge to you ... go to your local dealer and drive a manual E46 M3 or Z4M or S2000 or some other performance car from that era and I bet you it puts a smile on your face cuz they are true driver's cars. Some of us still like the best of both worlds. Last edited by scrammer; 11-24-2017 at 12:36 AM.. |

Boy has this thread been jacked and turned somber so quickly..
if any auto company can solve the problems of the demand of a performance hybrid or even an all-electric.. to give me a car I can drive spiritly and track occaisionally I'd put my bet on BMW at least until the freakin governments outlaw driving |

I own electric and I also live to drive, the very reason I just ordered a M-Car before the major disruption. |
