Yes, they all do, but I guess my point is that a competition model focused on competition would have that as a higher priority than a fuel economy gauge.
So I guess the point is that this is a really cool car, fast a little heavier etc. As a car guy I can't help like it but so is the M3 and M4 and M5 and Alfa Quadrifoglio, etc. The new car is just a continuation of the BMW evolution of a little heaver, faster, you don't need a real easy to see gauge. It has cool seats, etc. But for all of this stuff, I think I like the M3 more now. At least it has 4 doors and the idrive and gadgets don't seem as out of place.
So I am being very careful to say, yes cool car, but just more of the same. The 1M was a departure, this is not.
