I am fine with that from the pictures. I liked the RS1 yellow in picture but when I saw one in real life I was no longer a fan since it was too yellow.

I'm wondering whether you've acquired a subconscious attraction to your avatar... As your taste for yellow is finely tuned... Too yellow or too pale won't hit the spot..

Nah I had yellow cars way before the avatar existed.

The USA won't get anything but the b58 3.0 turbo model? As much as I like this car I don't think my next daily will be a gas car. You will need to pry the FRS out of my cold dead hands. Soon mine will be a track/weekend toy. Plan to get a cheap 25k all electric car in 3-4 years when the big boys get behind the movement.

Yup, although the buyer can be from outside the US

So apparently my $250,000 guess was a little short. You know, controversy spurs interest.

Funny thing, the colours in the UK are called the following:

Prominence Red
Black Metallic
White Metallic
Deep Blue Metallic
Silver Metallic
Ice Gray Metallic
Lightning Yellow, and finally the special limited edition
Storm Grey matt paint ... Target audience perhaps different in the UK as the car is falling in the £50-£60k bracket competing with Porsche, BMW and Audi etc..

So it's far more than just euro spec fuel filters. Can't say I'm happy....

At this point, if the car is already heavy at 3300lbs and the introductory engine is neutered, I'll just wait and pray for an AWD hybrid version at the end of the line.

AWD hybrid?

wtf

that's the antithesis of the Twins AND the Supra.

Does anyone know what the specific model/revision of the B58 the m240i has?

Asking because many people, including myself, put tunes on them and run 400+hp with ease and reliability.

Its ok, the mkv is an automatic, 2 seater car with a German engine that is produced in Austria. What harm could adding AWD and hybrid power do at this point?
