BMW M Roadster


Is BMW still a luxury brand?

Brand?

With BMW’s most expensive car, the 760Li, priced at just £100,280 and the now discontinued 2010 M6 having retailed at £89k – £92k, it’s a far cry from Mercedes’ priciest model (SLS AMG Roadster – £189k) or indeed Porsche (911 GT2 RS – £172k).

The top was down, the radio was off and the car’s brain, which BMW calls Dynamic Driving Control (DDC), was in “sport plus” mode. The steering and throttle response, the transmission’s shift points, and the suspension were all set to “Whoa!”

Stomp your foot on the gas and let the 35is race toward its 7,000-rpm redline and you’re treated to a whoosh from the turbos and a sharp exhaust note with an intense, barely refined edge. Think of a velvet dagger.
