Me! All things considered, the last of the real M built in Germany (All will be built in mexico i believe starting 2021.)
Manual gear box. Factory warranty, out of the box, fast enough to keep up with everything not names a super car, and handles like a dream. I have an OG M2 with a 6 speed. Did Euro delivery on my first and doing it for the CS. |

I thought this was a good article that tries to articulate the impact of BMWs hush hush magic that goes into the CS.

Just read a Tesla rumor about model 3 with 100kw battery and Ludacris mode. Would likely place is cost in CS territory. Electric is the future, but when is it time to make the jump??? Just food for thought.

Not sure its the electric motor, or Tesla? I mean, I would take a Taycan in the blink of an eye if I could remotely afford one . . . but I cannot even bear the thought of owning a Tesla. I know, pathetic and petty . . . but I just like the tradition of the German sport cars. I guess I will be willing to turn the corner when Porsche or BMW tell me I have to do so. ///AVM |

As you know, there is SOOO much more to performance and sport car enjoyment than the 'engine.' I am speaking out of my ass because I have never driven a Tesla, but I just cannot imagine they remotely offer the driving experience of my 718 CGTS . . . or your future M2CS. ///AVM |

Answer is when there’s no other choice and all the ICE options are gone. Aka, not now. Let the Tesla folks have the 1/4 mile fun (yes, it’s very fast) but relish in the fact that you’ve still got other options.

If I had $200K to spend on an electric car, the Tesla Roadster looks fun. . . but nowhere near my budget. 0-60 in 1.9s is sick. Odd they call it a 'roadster,' as I'm not sure its suited for the 'road?' Conversely, not sure how well suited it is for the track either? Looks plenty capable, but not aware of any Tesla track history? For example, brakes, suspension, handling. . . etc. For daily/spirited driving in the wild within my budget, I'm sticking with German ICE sport cars for now. . . electric variants as advances are forced upon me by the German manufacturers. https://www.tesla.com/roadster |

The carbon fiber roof on some of the other F8X models appears to have some peeling issues in warmer/sunnier environments
https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...highlight=roof I wonder if that's why they changed the weave/design? |
