Default IS-F and the Nurburging

Has the IS-F put up an official time on the Nurburgring? Can't recall ever seeing one. I know there's a video on youtube of an IS-F flying down a straight on the Nurburgring but was hoping to learn of something more official?

GREAT shot! I'm a big fan of the stock wheels, but I must say, those are really nice looking.

Yes it has posted an official time. I remember seeing a thread about how impressed people were on M3 boards. I think around 8:18 or something. Don't quote me

By the way, INSANE RIMS

I have not seen an official time. Considering that the CTS-V is claiming to be the first sedan to break the under 8 min mark, I figure maybe around a 8:10-8:25

Does anyone have the Nurburgring times for the M3/C63/RS4?

Link said M3 was 8:05 but wasn't stock. New M3 should be the fastest out of the four (IS-F, C63, RS4) right

Throw some coilovers on the IS-F and it's all good!
