My thoughts:
-The wheels actually look really cool and different. I was worried how they would turn out, but I like them!
- While I applaud BMW for listening to the reviews, customers, and armchair engineers (like myself), I'm not sure I like the idea of having to pay extra for some of this. Particularly the stiffer front bushings and better steering programing. I mean I can sort of kind of understand the stiffer suspension being extra, but I don't understand why someone should have to pay extra for a better steering M car.
-I really don't think carbon brakes should be mandatory with this package. That just makes it way too bat-shit expensive. Especially considering that some of these things should have been in the car to begin with. So I am glad they didn't put it in there.
-Overall, I really hope these improvements make it the undeniable class leader. Like the M5 has always been.
