    I agree, especially since iDrive is being touted as a piece of crap.

    read the Car and Driver comparison as well, cant wait to see them compare the M3 to the RS5/Lexus ISF/etc

    RS4 >>>>> ___

    I absolutely love that car. Very classy...MB lost some of its appeal to me, M3 is kinda ugly with that hood.

    Audi's grill is just so mean lookin...straight menacing/evil, very European. Like Bridgette Nielson [​IMG][​IMG]

    ^ Just saw that, MB/AMG listed some conservative numbers...I wouldn't think the car mag journalists would be able to produce better 0-60 times thanMB's test drivers. If C&D really did rip off a 3.9, wow. With the amount of torque that motor puts out, traction control must have been working OT tokeep that car from breaking loose.

    Mercedes is known to underrate their stats bc of insurance reasons (or so i've heard)...

    I also think a few years ago Lexus was sued for overstating/embellishing their #s, so I guess that's another reason for car companies to do it...

    That Benz is sick tho...
