The peak of tech innovations for cars seems to have been reached with late F series. Apple CarPlay has equalised a lot of things. The current in car techs are improvements rather than innovations and some of them are really unnecessary

Sorry for hijacking the threads

The G8X M3/M4 seem big but they are said to drive small just like M6. Some M2C guys say that G8X corner better than M2C

Has any M6 owner test driven GX M3/M4 and could give us feedback on comparison
There are lots of reviews have been published the last 2-3 weeks and looks like everybody is happy with handling, power, grip and acceleration of G8x. It's really fast car and have beaten the comparators (RS5/C63S)...
I never driven the car but since it has the same ZF8 I can tell you ZF8 is very smooth and nice but not as fun as DCT. Although people claim DCT is jerky but I believe we love that jerkiness
The big difference between DCT and ZF8 is when you go upshift and DCT has a lovely kick from rear and you miss that feeling with ZF8. Another difference is the creepy behavior of ZF8 when you are waiting at traffic light.
