I am either buying an S2K or a Miata just for track duty. Leaning towards an S2K if I can find a decent one. Look forward to more of your videos.

About 10 seconds worth, more of the M3 we cut, just mostly talking about the Carbon Fiber chassis brace on a 4000lb car that probably costs $2500.

It will weigh under 3400 lbs and will be lighter than my M3. They also somehow appear to have kept the prices in the low to mid $60k range with tons of included options. With the amount of carbon fiber used to build the car, I doubt that brace cost BMW very much to produce. I know the original thought was that the CF was only for the concepts and car show cars and that the production models would get the standard M3 aluminum ones, but I haven't read anything on that recently.

Aside from the 350F and RCF I did not see anything else besides M4/M3 M2 that got me too excited. Very slick ride, if you test drive it let me know.

I am somewhat interested in the RCF, but I doubt it will come with a manual. I will definitely be test driving an M235i and M4 as soon as possible. I really want to drive them and see if they truly have removed the lag. I test drove the 328i and 335i last year, and I actually prefered the 4 cylinder turbo in the 328i over the more powerful 6 cylinder turbo in the 335i. The lag was was much more noticeable in the 335i.

After driving the 335i its one of those cars that has the power on paper but is disappointing behind the wheel. Like to see same cars you are eye-balling you.
