What about the enthusiast or hardcore segment? You know the one where you offer an E92 M3 CSL or a 1M CSL for the United States.
You know that there is a market out there for a BMW M3 CSL and 1M CSL.
Why cater to enthusiasts as the brand once did, when you can instead develop strange ugly 2 door sporting SUV's for non-enthusiasts. 
I'm really struggling to see any near future M product I can be even remotely looking forward to this side of the next generation M3 in what 3 years? In the next 3 years BMW is going to loose a lot of enthusiasts like me while BMW twiddles their thumbs and not give us the CSL cars of the current generation M cars for the meantime. |
How is the 1M itself not doing that. It's like give an inch take a mile. What other manufacturer produces a 1 off car in large numbers for only 1 year specifically for enthusiasts?
