Brand new car. Looks great. I want one. For BMW it's a new line of product with tons of aftermarket products and racing, etc. Big boost in business.
I'm sure there's a lot of horsepower to be gained in the aftermarket. Can't wait. |

I like the 360 cams... and people do realize that they are using them for VR headsets right? Not just a gimmick, people are starting to create content for devices like the oculus.

I am very much loving LOVING this. First good feedback and granted Farfus is one of their DTM drivers, but I think the enthusiasm sounded genuine. That said, I would love to see the car on a tighter, auto-X type course or something a little more technical, but I am very much being sold on the nimble nature of the car vs the M3 which is the other contender.
Car looked pretty good, but the interior is definitely nothing to write home about. Looks practical and comfortable and actually a little surprised at how I liked the seats in the video. Great post and thanks! |

I think for the money, this is a budget concious M car. It is similar in performance to the M3/4 at a nice discount and smaller package. What's there not to like? Not sure why so many have been overly critical. Its a great car and like all new BMWs, it is better than the car it replaces. This is progress. If its not the car for you, buy something else. |

I thought the 360 cam work was amazing, the quality of the actual video wasn't. Nevertheless, this clip was amazing. It really reminds of where Farfus drove with his wife on the nordschleife. Farfus really seems like a cool guy!

I don't think he ever pushed the sport button next to the shifter. Wonder why and if the asd was not as pronounced as it could have been if this is true.

Wow just watched that on my nexus 6 and the video was awesome. Had no clue something like that was possible through YouTube lol. Fantastic way to render a video.

Would have been more interesting to watch if it were a manual...
