I mean don't get me wrong but who voted for the X5M and X6M those are just wastes of space. do they really have that kind of towing capacity? really a multi-billion dollar company would shit out the X5M and X6M but not a gts model that would probably move more units per capa then the others. idk maybe i am a dumb consumer?
Sorry, but this is true. I do agree with you and I would buy an I6 Diesel BMW for daily drive with all comfort features and a stripped down Petrol BMW for tracking. But look at the post on M3Post M3 GTS vs. 911 GT3 RS (http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=321764). 80% would take the Porsche 911 over the M3, some arguments where, the 911 GT3 RS has A/C and Navi but the M3 GTS doesen't. The same goes for Cayman vs. M1.
It seams BMW M cars have no more place in the market. Those that want a sporty daily drive car with comfort and power take a Audi RS, and those that want a real uncompromised sportcar take a Porsche. And as both are needed so the two cars in the garage are Audi RS and Porsche. No BMW M, it is between both, neither this nor that.
