Of course . The sad part for me is that i wont follow the next m cars because of those few details. I can see that marketing is strong nowadays , but you cant just sell the M history in this way. Audi has S cars as well , but there is as well the RS segment which is considered their best performance cars. E92 335i had just a M package and thats all ! Its the same as now with the "M"235i etc. M135 xdrive 2.0L 4cyl is an M car , X2 35 as well same . Happy to see Albert left after making the M2/3/4 at least. After those models , a lot changed , grills etc , but most important the marketing. Maybe the next car will be a KIA or Huyndai really ! Ill keep up with my M2 as my performance car , but even for my daily car i wouldnt go for a BMW anymore.
