Its just a confused CL65 AMG which thinks its a sports car. Or a confused M5 which removed its rear seats and doors and now thinks its a sports car.
Regardless I do like it of course. Looks great and is very fast GT.

Motortrend tested the M8 and they only managed 0-60 mph in 3.3 sec and the 1/4 mile in 11.4 @ 124 mph. I've seen numerous 1/4 mile drag races with the M8 and the average is 0-100 km/h in 3.1 sec(no roll-out) with the 1/4 mile in 11 flat so it's hard to make sense of the big discrepancy between C@D vs Motortrend. I suspect the launch control electronics is the problem hence the differences.
