M4 GTS Ring Time Revealed !

[alexk]

I pray daily that the arse falls out of this ridiculous market. I want to see 25-30k Csl, 50k gt3, 70k rs again and hope these cars fall into hands of drivers rather than polishers and speculators.

Sad state of affairs right now.

You are right.
That's why I drive mine with every chance I have and I use it properly at the track.
As I had said, life is too short not to enjoy a car like the CSL. :thumbs:

That thing looks ugly as he'll wheels off a pontiac trans am :banghead:

This.

I thought the last GTS was a bit pony (although I loved the orange colour and the idea of a bigger V8), but this thing is an utter monstrosity. What's with the silly door pulls ripped of a GT3 RS, or the hideous chin spoiler. And what's that shocking video about? Whoever works in BMW marketing needs to head back to the 80s.

As for being turned down for a car, that is very Porsche. I will never buy another 911 via a dealer after the silliness that I experienced trying to buy a GT3 (or at GT4).

Feck the GTS, its ridiculous money.
What I'm interested in is the M2 CSL... I've had a deposit down for that sucker all year!

My thoughts exactly just put better into words :hahaha:

I agree fully Ian, it's all gone daft. Some fecker out there has my future 964 RS locked away and it wants to be with me

Patience friends.........the correction will come. Jeff WILL get his tractor :hahaha:

Bored to death of hearing Nurburgring lap times now.. There's so much more to a car than how quick it goes round the ring in. It could be doing a 20 second lap but it looks crap and won't have the noise of the csl! For the first time in my life a lot of new cars are just not doing it for me.

Have to agree with you....but as its the perceived benchmark we'll have to live with it.

Saw a Mk2 Golf G60 @ the ring last week driven by a fine german chap who would shit the M4GTS towing a caravan.

:finga:

Have to agree, while i think lap times on various tracks are not unimportant, it has been blown out of proportion in the last couple of years.

Manufacturers these days are so keen on fast laps that they don't care if the car only manages 1 lap until the tires are shredded to bits. And thats what most people don't think about.
For instance, the latest X6M supposedly matches the lap time of the e92 M3 but you don't have to be a rocket scientist to guess which is the better sportscar.
