With the E9X M3 completing the ring in 8:05, I would not be happy with anything less than 7:50 with the F8X M3/M4. Forget the competition. I'm not worried about what they are doing...

Edit: A source from BMW already said that the M4 will be "10-secs faster" than the outgoing M3. And I still think he's being conservative! Show me 7:40!!!!!
You leave out the improved DCT over both the M3 and the non M is DCT... A VERY good chance the car will be underrated.... See below on the m5 [with charcoal filters in]

The cars got a lot going for it before we even start talking Piggy/Tune, Intake, exhaust, DP's, tires, Meth/E85... If it isn't between 11.8-12.5 I'd be shocked, just saying from watching a 4385lb [+driver] M5 running 11.3.s-12.2s in all kinds of conditions from bald tires, to cold PSS, etc.
