The car that will replace my 55

I posted this in th c63 forum. Probably the best vid yet of this little beast. Long 6 min. @ 1:40 I was drooling at 3:48 I needed a tissue. This car is going to be a hoot.

I want! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohJO3dyg6ng

The instrument cluster looks much better than the E63. Looks, sound, speed are all right. They are going to sell a butt load. Not feeling that color. What is the curb weight of that bad boy?

But its down 40Kw on the E63. Is that going to be an easy fix with software or restrictor removal or whole new exhaust?
It would be a supercar with the whole box and dice output!
