AutoNL ran a stock GTC 0-300kmh at around 35 sec. Think the M8c clocks in at 41sec.
Looked for 60-130 or 100-200 but can't find comparable sources quickly. Will do some checking later.

I think the M cars push with more urgency below 100mph.
I can see that in regards to the super high speeds- the parasitic loss (lack of it with the DCT) and lower weight should prevail. I think the COed is better with the GTC too?

That AutoNL test is crazy---- 6 seconds gap at 180 mph terminal is nuts.
