Just a mismatch of writer and vehicle I think.

See post #3

Some of my favorite quotes:

"If someone at BMW told me that the M8 Competition had 950 horsepower I would actually believe them because this thing is that fast".

"If you really wind things out to the 7,000 RPM redline, you'll be doing over 100 mph before needing to shift into third. If you dare shift into third, you'll feel like an earthquake is thrusting the car forward without showing any signs of running out of steam".
