The down side of this car is the overheating issues from the turbo engine. i bet it won't have the same lap time with a following lap.
I pick-up my car last Dec and till now recently, HK summer heat is killing my cars performance and that is related to the turbo and heating issues+traffic.
If i buy this for Fun+Track, i need $ 50,000 more for upgrades= $750,000+.
So i think a standard M3 is a much better choice.
This is just my own view on this.

But I noticed that even recent hot days, the blades behind grill still close after normal running!
I intended to check this before shut off engine.
My gauge only indicated 110-115 C after pulling hard occasionally recent hot days, even at noon.
I saw those blades opened only when the car stationed with sunny days.
Could those blades be reprogram to open more time, cooling the engine or turbo?
Will this will help?
DY; did your temperature gauge stay or over 120 C, which I think definitely affect engine out put?

I had this on my pre lci and I took them off and the engine was alot cooler and the car was faster.
Didn't know this. So am I making the right choice to have the NA engine? Probably not, your engine has more potential for performance mods.
More specific on your 50K mod details please?
