I feel the same about the Tesla, fast, awesome inside, looks shit from the outside. Lets be honest no one buying a car this expensive wants it to look so ordinary, we all want to show off a bit.
Did you drive the RS5? It's
far more than an A5 with a bigger engine (although it is nearly double the power at 450bhp). It shares almost none of the running gear, and damnnn that Lamborghini derived V8 is sweet! I also much prefer the new lights to the old daisy-chain eyeliner ones, I had an S5 with those, and have an RS5 with the new ones now, the new looks so much cooler imo. (yes I'm probably bias).
It is a shame the RS5 isn't available with a stick though...
That said the bimmer is a nice motor for sure. They're a bit dull inside, but the drive more than makes up for it. Myself I just feel like the V8 has more 'soul' than that V6 turbo power plant, if only because it sounds a million times better. I really loved the E92 M3 sad to see that engine go. Anyway enjoy the new motor and good luck with the sale.
