He never even lefted the side of the road. No wonder why they lost to Italy in the FIFA semis.

so then technically...the first 0-60 took 30 seconds, PLUS the 4.7 seconds from 0-60 yeah?

It took Tiff a full 2 minutes to set up his car. That's almost half of the entire review.

Uh, and wow. He *****s the M button a full 5 times in the remaining two minutes of the review. 5 times in two minutes. That's like what, once every 20 or so seconds?

I thought the next comment down was more relevant.

hah, what a joke, who needs all of those settings.... let's see, 0-60 in an E55, stomp and go, leaving the M5/M6 sitting there in the dust while they setup their launch, m mode, crash iDrive and have to reboot, then dump oil all over the ground from their faulty vanos and finally getting a christmas tree of lights on the dash asking them to drive moderately because their steering angle sensor has just died...
