Looks like the "track" testing involves a kart track, at least from what is shown in the last couple minutes.

And for the previous questions regarding her preference for BMW v. Porsche, she has more race seat time in a Porsche. Given that she benefits from a relationship with both marques, we may never know her actual preference for one over the other.

Until they put a "real" M engine in the car they'll never go away.

They will NEVER go away. Even if there's a M engine it will be kid brother until the price tag of 1M > M3 then automatically people will convert 1M is better, regardless of performance.

I really want one, the car seems so well done.

It's also entertaining how much Germans love tacky pop music
