We need data testing from the big magazines

The height.
With lower ground clearance, the center of gravity goes lower , causing better grip and better traction.

I take your point but yeah that’s why guys strip out interiors and shit for an extra tenth

M5 is a beast! Hmmmmmmm wonder if I should get one.

M5 needs time to find itself as it is not a huge improvement out of the door over the F90 or any of the competitors.

Impressive. 6.4 is equal to conservative stage 1 tunes on the F90 so already ahead of the game. Stage 2 F90 can do 5.3 with DME @ 760bhp 740tq up to 5.8 ish for more conservative 700hp S2 tunes. Once the 100-200 us quicker than my F90 I think ill make the jump, hopefully i wont have to send my ECU away.

Agreed. Going to be hard pressed to find a stock F90 on the road, most are stage 1 which will be faster than the G90. Once we know the tuning potential which should be at least equal to the F90 and the F90s start to feel dated i can see a lot of F90 guys like myself making the jump. I played this game too many times now, at first, I deny and tell myself to stay with old faithful, then I get bored, then I start looking, then I make the inevitable purchase. A tale as old as time.

Same boat as you. i'm really not sure about this being a good move for me but ... at least it's waaaaaay cheaper than my G81, adding to that the road tax advantage of the G90... I'm just hopping it's still sporty enough not to get bored.

Probably going to be a boat loads of them in Ireland soonish since the pricing is so attractive here.
