Just as bad as the Dodge truck grills were in the early 2000's to what they are today. It'll grow on you, not me, but maybe you.

Yeah seriously they aren't that bad, especially when you see them up close. Seems to depend on color, too.
so I find that a good amount of articles from carbuzz are garbage...this is a good example of one....so they made a tuner version of an M4...what does this have to do with a 911? they spend exactly 0 words in this article discussing anything involving actual performance or how it might compare to a 911. I guess they mention 205mph, but does anyone really care about 200mph anymore?

Yeah, I guess no one can tune a 911?

Yeah but gotta think a 3800 lb car with 700 hp/618 ft-lb torque would be a beast. And just with a tune and exhaust mods.

I looked up the prices. So about $15K on top of $75K+for the car.

Except I'm sure that voids your warranty, which I'm not sure you want to do with an M BMW. 😂That's right in there with a GT500 or C8 Z06

Used gt350r are selling for near sticker price haha

Is that for real in CA? Wifey's 2021 Highlander Hybrid in FL will be msrp + $1500 dealer package that includes window tinting.
I saw it on the internet, it has to be true.

I wouldn’t be surprised either. CA is a different market and craziness.

I was just thinking this would be funny if they were towing a generator in the trailer with the car plugged in ;-P

If you want a straight-line car you're better off modding one of the thousand variations of Hemi/Hellcat Chargers/Challengers (cheaper, faster, won't break as soon as the Bimmer) instead of a boosted-within-an-inch of its life BMW straight-six. I personally would take a base 911 over any M-series Bimmer. First of all they look better, BMW forgot how to style cars somewhere in the mid-2000's. Second the Porsche will steer, ride, and handle better. All 2016+ 911's are also turbos, so you can tune them, it just costs more since its a Porsche. Go to a reputable shop though and you can get it done right.

All Porsche prices are crazy right now, across the board. Used base Carrera's going for 6-figures, Turbos with 60k miles on them going for 150k.
