[spoonful]

Anyone else getting a little sick of the not a BMW narrative, ESPECIALLY from the Euro press...

On track, it feels absolutely faithful, the steering has a reassuring linearity to it and the brakes are strong. But it never feels as nimble or controlled as the BMW, even with the smart diff working its magic, and lacks the wallop you get in the M4 when you plant the throttle on the exit of a corner.

On the road it fares much better. The ride is mostly good, and while the paucity of low and mid-range power is even more apparent, the engine is actually a bit of a charmer. The interior, lifted straight from the IS saloon, is a lovely thing too.

I can't tell if BMW is actually as good as the media says it is, or if people think its that good because the media tells them so.

I can't tell if BMW is actually as good as the media says it is, or if people think its that good because the media tells them so.

It's why you also have to educate yourself on it if it's something you're interested in along with reading up on what media and others have to say then judge for yourself.
