I should add that I am optimistic that the F8x will do well over time against its rivals in part because most of these jobbers were benchmarked against the previous M3 and so they are mostly outfitted with V8's.

Meanwhile BMW has moved on to better things. The F8x is still new and some of its charms are yet to be fully appreciated by journalists who have only borrowed them for a few romps around a track.

I wouldn't be surprised if we see a collection of turbo 6's next go-around. Meanwhile the ///M will have a turbo 4 and maybe an electric motor i8 style.

Thanks for coming out.
