The thing is I love the element of surprise. Everyone expects you to beat them when you are driving a Corvette. In the BMW you will have all these SRT8, EVO, STI, GTOs, etc challenging you that might not otherwise if you were driving a Corvette. And if they do challenge you in a Corvette, its probably because they are modded to the point where they Know they will beat you. So in the BMW it seems so stock for a 12 second street car, it is a great sleeper. It is such a mellow, civilized car, until you decide to romp on it. I still go after any Z06 I see, just to stun them around town, even if they do beat me, they might have a very hard time trying to do it.
