The engine sound is not bad at all, I was a little worried (assuming that is a turbo?) The car certainly loads up well into the turns. I love how BMW M division sets up suspensions, its usually the perfect balance between road and track.

The turbo spool sounds great, can't wait to hear one in person.

For all of the F10 M5 V8 TT antagonists out there:
What if it knocks 5 seconds off the CTS-V 'Ring lap time? Would you want it then?

For such an intriguing clip, it was a tad boring!

I imagine they're calling the DCT an "automatic" so they don't confuse the masses.

It had better do just that! If they don't spank the CTS-V, which is 40k cheaper, then this car will be a failure in my mind. The CTS-V caught a lot of people by surprise, but BMW has had a lot of time to make sure they regain superiority on the track.
