    They fixed the acceleration times! Finally! But I still have doubts with that 315 kph top speed (posted on the acceleration times website)

    So... according to the acceleration graph above... this car goes to some 110kph in 5 seconds but then, however, in the next three it stops accelerating completely (at some point it even slows down a little), before it starts to speed up again - exponentialy. Lol.

    Also if any car running the quarter-mile in 12.9s hits 130 mph by then, it must have problems.

    The estimates are not realistic. Will any mods on here please fix this? Why is this a 181mph in the mile car?

    with Launch control on and DCT around 0-200 in around 16 sounds realistic. FYI, Rambo is 92 years old :)

    I thik when it comes to Bmws, Theres not a HUGE difference between the DCT and Manual, Theres a difference though of course.

    Manual-DCT
    0-60Mph 4.6 Vs 4.3
    0-100Mph 11.2 Vs 10.8
    1/4 Mile 13.3@107.6 Vs 12.9@109.2

    But i guess that all depends on ones definition of Large.

    Manuel and auto versions have a very large difference in performance according to data from car and driver. Should there be 2 different pages?

    Ok, honestly is there any way for the admins to permanently delete comments rather than just hiding them? I nearly threw up on my computer when I saw Rambo's comment.

    Well, it is not a production car yet. But it looks to be ready, and the data seems OK.

    So basically we got a coupe variant of the M135i. Well, I expected it to be more impressive; a more successor to the cool 1M Coupe. It needs a more badass engine. An improved Twin-Turbo Inline-5 outputting ~370 PS would be excellent to compete with the CLA45 AMG.
