yes the 3.0 is very good but at a price, I got the price list today and it is $932,700 before discount. The finel price is $862,700 for the 3.0
2.8 is $753,040 before discount, after is $733,040 but 2.8 is not worth it because it only has 204hp for a 2.8L.
Both engines 2.8 and 3.0 come with 20" wheels, front and rear parking camera.

I also saw the A5 which Is nice too but it is much smaller, I like this more because it engine is so good.
2.0L with 211hp and the best thing is 350Nm at 1500rpm
BMW F10 is less (258 hp) in the BMW 528i 310Nm
BMW need to do more work on catching up with audi engines
also the A5 2.0 TFSI quattro is within my price range at $530,878 before discount.
looks like A5 or the Tesla Models S will be my next car.
No F10 for me unless they do a very good deal like my LCI
1 thing I for about is the new N20 engine which is more powerfull than Audi 1.

I hope they put that in the F10 then I may change to that.

new news on the M3 Sedan
it is being phased out in the next generation model.
so only 2 door M will be made.

I wonder if they will phased out the M5 in the next generation model after the F10???

The friction from the 21" tyres should be doing the favour for slowing it down quickly enough.

People who can afford prosche will normally just go inside and pay the deposit.

The sales told me there are one guy in Macau paid 13 Million for the 918 spyder hybrid few weeks ago

How do you like the interior? It was nice a think but i were expecting abit more luxurous feel inside,
so for me A7 is like the L size A5 to me, but you are paying nearly double. So it is still not a car for me especially it is a four seaters. ( I have two big golden retrivers need to fit inside)

Yeah, Previously I though if I won the mark 6, I would just call the sales to come and pick up the deposite. Well, that was until I saw how much understeer it had compared to the lotus in 5g, which is consistent w my experience in the old cayenne, steering is v sharp and good though

the car looks luxurous outside but it looks too sporty inside for a luxurous car and it the design feels much more f younger feel than the F10.
I agree it is just a bigger version of the A5 but slower with no Turbo in the engine. That is why I would go for the A5 more.
4 seats is ok for me. My family is only 4 and I never take the helper out with me so for the 4door coupe 4 seat . If more than 4 ppl then its the stepwgn.

I think for us 3 no matter how much $$ we will have it all depends on the drive.
I think the drive is no. 1 on the list then the looks.
just like Z4 I love the car but don't like the feeling driving it.
same goes for the F10.
