At least I cannot get the BMW to work. I hated that car from the first lap.
Visibility from the cockpit is also crap.

Regarding popularity I guess the same can be said about the Jag, the V12 Vantage, the 2015 Bentley, 2015 Nissan, Gallardo REX. You see them run occasionally, but not at the sharp end of the field.

There are no "specialists" drivers really. I know of somebody who tried to field the Gallardo REX and took the challenge. Needless to say he wasn't competitive with it.

The thing with the BMW is... it is really big and heavy. The Bentley in comparison feels like an agile predator. It is really challenging to drive although imho it is one of the best sounding cars in the game. The V12 Aston is even worse

Default views:

BMW

Merc

NSX Evo

This is without moving the view. The A-pillar is the most to the left, which allows the best viewing of those three examples. Lift the height by 1.5 and make the distance 2.5 (34" UWide) and its awesome.

Those are all old or non-evolution models, so a bit moot ....

The BMW can be very fast as long as you respect its characteristics...

Setup is the key... I'm not a fast driver in the scheme of things, but it's good for 34's / low 35's in race setup for me at Misano, so in better hands, it would go to 33's

Here is a setup I worked on, doesn't feel heavy to me....
