if a Kia can do that, a BMW should knock it out of the park the only limitation is range and charging so would be situational and differ person to person. i also can't see it being a very involving track car coz i prefer ICE, banging gears, noise, and F82 ballpark weight on track. while it has no soul it has a lot of spirit and i absolutely love the way i can blast past everyone at the twitch of my toes, corners flat and on rails like a rollercoaster with only 255 PS4S tires. there is no waiting for turbo spool, waiting for gear change, waiting for who knows what the computer is waiting for. you think and before you finish thinking the car's gone. just instant. alien tech Last edited by G30M; 03-25-2024 at 06:30 PM.. |

So then why the masquerade of publishing a Ring laptime? my point is, it’s irrelevant for EVs, so focus on all the other metrics discussed here.

2. I can run 25 minute sessions at full speed? All I need and more. When I ran my 550i, I backed off on the front straight because 120 was plenty and 140 was a bit much for me. 3. Most cars can't run 25 minute sessions at full bore without significant mods to brakes, cooling, and/or oiling. 4. I'd expect, if this is a full blown M car, that a 25 minute session won't be a problem. Me? I'm waiting for a small, light, RWD EV, like an FRS. |

Well - I love the Sound in Sport/Sport Boost in the i4 M50. And believe it or not - it’s louder compared to our 2022 EU Spec M8 Competition ( which is really silent cause you due to EU Regulations the car comes with 4 catalytic converters, 2 resonators, 2 opfs, 1 middle silence and the 3 stage rear muffler plus all pops and bang are coded out in the dme‘s from factory). But I would love to have the sounds from the iX in the i4. Big fan of the „expressive sound“ mode and the others made by Hans Zimmer. Sounds just for me - don’t care about others so can be quit outside 😂 But that’s just me being an „egoist“ 😂 |

I am more into spaceships.
Star Wars Guy ;-) Would love to be able to switch to all the different Pod Racer Sounds, Tie Fight, Snowspeeder etc. That would be awesome - 😎 Still have big hopes in Porsche to continue but I guess Disney is asking for too much now https://youtu.be/z6qdcA81cd4?si=Pw-hOY8C-s47iAmz |

I'll have 90% of the fun for 30% of the price in whatever Toyota, Honda, and Nissan come up with in the same class.

I think it (the Big Grill design) works quite well for the i4!
