I'm a little dissappointed too

I was expecting 350bhp+ and the M3's DCT transmission.

So, in the UK for our additional £8,500 all we get is:

- LSD (which is a great improvement)
- More aggressive suspension setup (which is a great improvement)
- Better exterior body kit (looks great)
- Slightly improved M interior
- A mild tune (I have that already)
- Improved brakes

mmmmm I'm not convinced, although there are a lot of great features it's the negatives:

- Weak sounding exhaust according to C&D (BMWP on my car which is amazing)
- M priced servicing and maintenance (which is always v.expensive)
- Power - 335bhp is lame
- No standard SSK?

This car should have M3 rivalling noise, still achievable from the N54, 360bhp, BMW P parts e.g. seats, SSK etc
