Take pity on people with closed minds. Yes, these are quick cars, but they're still consumer cars at the end of the day.

The N54 E82 has its limitations (mostly that the wheel wells don't fit rubber big enough to deal with N54 E9Xs) but it's certainly not a stupid fast car. No LSD, unreliable, heavy, not that pretty, understeer problems.

Don't get me wrong, I love the 1. However, as much as people underestimate it, I feel like it's also a very over-estimated car as well.
You speak the truth. Pretty much exactly how I feel, yet I still love them!
