Pros & Cons
Pros
- Widely considered the greatest car ever built — ultimate collector prestige
- Central driving position gives unmatched sense of connection to the car
- Only 1,138 kg — lighter than almost anything in FH6
- BMW Motorsport V12 sounds like nothing else on earth
- Gold-lined engine bay heat shielding — because why not
Cons
- No ABS or traction control — you must drive it properly
- 627 hp in S2 class means you need to upgrade to compete
- Auction House prices are extreme (5M+ CR routinely)
- Narrow vintage tire setup demands immediate modern rubber swap
- RWD + short wheelbase = snappy oversteer if you lift mid-corner
