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

The R&T article says they are using the Touring model (heavier) and at 1500 ft. (slower) If you are at sea level you would pick up between .1 and .2 and dropping the weight is to the base model is worth another .1 at least.

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...
