  1. I have driven a DC2 Integra Type R across Europe. The M4 is like a Maybach compared to that 😉 It was only twitchy when accelerating hard from a standstill or lowish speed. Not a handful. Just right amount of fun. Should imagine on a long journey in comfort mode it would be a wonderful GT car.
  2. @Linas.P This has 7k miles on the clock on an 18 plate and no rattles or squeaks. It is a hire car as well so expect it hasn't had the easiest life but all fine it would seem. I didn't attempt to drive off any curbs so can't comment on that but car felt very stiff in the modes I tried. Ps. It's an M4 Comp Pack not an M3 so probably stiffer still being a 2 door.
  3. Well looks aside as they are subjective (Yas Marina Blue is my favourite BMW colour). Obviously a lot newer car than my 10 year old ISF. So M4 Comp Pack.... Likes... Noise. Fitted with Performance exhaust. Lovely loud barks on upshifts and on overrun it crackles and pops not unlike an F-Type Steering response. Tried all 3 modes I could find - Comfort, S & S+ and the car felt lovely in all modes. Just nice weight to the steering and great steering feel. Driving position. ***** to the Grass as it should be and the seats are so much nicer than the ISF arm chairs Power. Didnt feel quicker than the ISF (although my friend thinks it does) but just seems a lot more savage in it's delivery. Was in S+ at time. Didn't boot it around in comfort mode as time/life was too short. It turns heads. A lot of heads :-) DCT Gearbox - Felt a lot more punchy when upshifting (I dialled the speed up to max) although didn't feel noticeably quicker than ISF gearbox but we are talking milliseconds at the end of the day. Both the M4 DCT and ISF change gear quicker than I could in a manual. Dislikes.... The wheels. Really not a fan of the Competition Pack wheels as I think they are too busy but again that is subjective. Would take me a year to work out best settings to drive in 😉 Would be paranoid it would break 😞
  4. Just spent an hour driving this around. It is my mates courtesy car while his ISF bumper gets resprayed. I take back everything I say about BMW and get why @Warrington guy made the change. I need one. Now. Absolute weapon and the noise.... Oh the noise 🙂
  5. @Peter P18 Massive fan of these. Keep seeing them on various Instagram sites and I think they really modernise the back end of a standard ISF whereas they make yours look like something Mad Max would drive pre apocalypse (which is good)
  6. You must have read my mind. I was only looking at the stuff from Dom Rep the other night. Rear diffuser for me 🙂
  7. That's odd. I think opposite but maybe our ears are tuned differently. You don't start chasing after sheep suddenly in a field do you and find yourself competing with a border collie? I do, but that's because I was born in Cardiff 😉 I think they changed the filter from a dry filter to an oiled filter recently. Not sure that would make the difference though if true at all.
  8. I have the Takeda intake installed in my ISF. Without watching the video as I fitted mine myself, did you disconnect the battery? I kept mine connected. It wasn't until I had the battery changed recently and the ECU reset as a result that the car felt a lot more responsive with the intake fitted. May be my imagination though 😉
  9. I have one on mine and the second intake sound is very much still there. IMO it's even more noticeable.
  10. @Martin F - you have won with the Supra 🙂 mods.... Close the thread.
  11. Hit my Spotify song download limit recently so decided to clear a few offline playlists. Realised that most of my playlists are road trip related. So... Fom you fellow F owners, apart from a 5L V8... What are your top 5 driving songs. I will then make up a new playlist based on responses for my next run. Will start with 5 (and way too many that haven't made list) No particular order... 1) ACDC - Thunderstruck 2) Fleetwood Mac - Go your own Way 3) Bruce Springsteen - Dancing in the Dark 4) The Killers - All the Things I have done 5) Tears for Fears - Everybody wants to rule the world I am only 38 I promise 😉 Intrigued to hear yours 🙂
  12. You know the right thing to do... And it's not sell it to @Stuno1 😉
  13. @Flytvr keeping her then? How could you want to sell her? She is stunning.
  14. Yep. She had a Mini Cooper S before that (guess who chose that as well). She wanted something Golf sized that wasn't a Golf. Oh and it couldn't be red... Until I explained that Alfa's should only be in red 😉 It has same engine as the 500 Abarth so is quite pokey although she didn't want to stretch to the 240bhp Cloverleaf 😞
  15. My ISF is my daily but the wife owns this which I also use when needed.
  16. Give me a shout if/when you are looking to get rid. Cheers 🙂
  17. Cheers. Did you fit them as they came or did you get them setup and corner weight adjusted?
  18. Afraid not. Weekend after I get back from Oktoberfest in Munich so don't think the wife will let me disappear so soon after 😞
