Reliability report is out, DCT went down at 400 miles and stranded the guy and his pregnant wife with no help from BMW roadside assistance. I hope it is an isolated case, but I am guessing tradition continue with 1st model year BMW performance models.

Just got back from test driving the F80 M3 and it's a very impressive car. I think it's the perfect wolf in a sheep's skin if you will. Understated but drives very very well.
First year cars will always have reliability concerns, hence I am not buying one til 2nd model year. The guy's DCT failure is famous now but there was another guy with electronics issues too. Just keep in mind the internet we always hear the bad before the good so you need to take things with an ounce of skepticism.
I'm anxious to go drive the RC-F once it's released, very curious how the cars will compare. But I think Lexus made a big mistake only releasing a 2-door car. It's like you are missing 50% of the market right off the bat.

already had a 4 door F car, the ISF even if it is last gen, new 4 door F is coming anyways. Releasing an RCF at the same time as the rest of the RC line is a bigger deal to show the new model, instead of waiting another 2 years for the an F like the ISF did.
