I want that man’s job.

I do wish there were a few more minutes of the car careening around the track, and that glorious engine note screaming out…

Nice video and still love the sound of the new V8, addicting. Did chuckle though with the statement “lightweight construction is key these days, especially for M cars”.

Does BMW really consider a 3704 lbs car to be lightweight heh.

About BimmerFile

BimmerFile is dedicated to bringing you the most interesting news, links and reviews related to the BMW brand and it's vehicles.

We believe in the old school BMW ownership experience. We believe in garage nights with a six pack and some friends. We believe in 2002s, in E30 M3s and E34 540s with the 6 speed. We believe in progress in both design and engineering but we haven't lost sight of what made the brand and its products great all those years ago. And yes, we believe in the manual transmission.

We long for the days of the wave and for the days of roll-up windows. Yet we love the gadgets on the inside and the xenons on the outside.

In short, we can't get enough of BMWs. This is BimmerFile.
