Ummm, am I missing something? According to my stopwatch I get a 0-100km/h of about 6.8 seconds. What's so beastly about that? Kinda slow if you ask me.

You did notice its in km/h didn't you?

My DD 135i does 0-60 in 4.7-4.8 right off the showroom floor. You can keep the slo-dub.

I'm not sure what's going on with this video..

The new R is supposed to get to 60 in under 5sec and finish the 1/4 in low 13s @ 105ish. No slouch, but yea.. not going to blow anyone away. :o
