EDIT: changed from 4.9 to 4.7 (thanks Endgame for pointing that out to me).

Edmunds always has slow numbers. My theory is that they just have some crappy drivers. :p
Road&Track and Motortrend usually post the best times, but you're right in pointing out that 4.7 to 5.1 is nearly half a second. Maybe motortrend knows how to launch this car better? I'm pretty sure they both tested the 6MT Sport versions, not really sure why they were so different.
Either way, the car is definitely fast.. and once people start buying them and taking them to the strip we will see what they are capable of in the real world.

Yeah edmunds does the 0-60 slower but the 1/4 mile came up in 13.4 @ 104.8 mph I am very sure someone else that can actually drive will get this a bunch lower.

0-100 in 12.8 secs is a bit disappointing though. just one sec faster than the old model. exactly as fast as a335i coupe. could be better for 330hp really...
