PS4S rides to MMC

Courtesy of BMWBlog: It was 5 a.m. and my alarm was going off. I didn’t mind though as I was on my way to Monticello Motor Club for an M Track Day put on by BMW of North America. A day filled with driving the latest BMW M cars on one of the premier race tracks in North America was very exciting and made it easy to roll out of bed!

Michelin is one of the few sponsors of the BMW M Track Days and all of the cars would be equipped with Pilot Super Sport tires.

The exterior design is spot-on with near-perfect proportions, especially when finished in Long Beach Blue Metallic. I admit an unhealthy attraction to small, wide-fendered cars, but everyone I showed it to loved the look, too. Except for the young lady who cuts my hair, who was not moved by the baby M-car’s pumped up flanks.
