Hi all,
I drove my wife's R56 this morning and it confirmed they lost a bit of what I call the Mr Bean effect with the F56.
I feel the R56 is quite raw. You feel the road, all the small bumps. You turn the wheel and you feel the car turning. You brake and you really feel it. Everything connects you so much with the road.
The new F56 is much more refined and classy. You don't feel that much the road and its imperfections. The interior finish is an enormous step above the R56, very polished and technologically advanced. But in the F56 I am farther from the front of the car, further from the road and feeling less immersed.
In my opinion the R56 and F56 are two very different cars.
Even though I own a F56 which I love, I still really enjoy very much driving the R56. I have that Mr Bean grin everytime I drive it.
