No luggage, just me and the passenger.... In this picture its because I am going about 48 MPH on a 30 degree banked curve I also think the CP wheels and silverstone color give a bit of a illusion of the car sitting a bit lower.

CP is firmer than non CP; if that's not the experience you are after non-CP is still a very special car. I drove the pre lci m5 fairly hard (I don't believe the non-CP lci sounds any different) and now that I've stopped babying the CP, exhaust is definitely louder IMO. Have not used full throttle yet, however, goes from quiet to almost thunderous under load. |

according to BMW both the launch of the he car and the brochures they are forged. weight would suggest it also.

There is no confirmed info beyond that, though most take this to mean that the 343M is forged, and the 601M is not. At the end of the day, You're not going to notice 5lb regardless unless you are actually tracking the car, and even then I question whether you could. HOWEVER - I agree it is odd and backwards that BMW would deliver a heavier wheel with an inferior manufacturing tech with their "Competition Pak". |
