Then Mercedes releases the A45 AMG and that just killed BMM as they have nothing to compare to this monster M135 is too ugly M235 is still not a M car, engines need updating to at least 350bhp too compete as Mercedes is releasing the twin turbo 3lt with 350bhp plus.
BMW has failed, only the M3 or M4 are any good M5 and M6 are just too big and too heavy period.
I will stick to my E92 tuned twin turbo 335i M-sport for a few more years yet.
As an F30 owner I can assure you it's far from sloppy and is a better car in every way than E series BMWs . How do I know? I still drive my E90 330i in fact I drove it all day yesterday and back in the F30 today, no comparison, I think you really need to live and own something before you can make an accurate description. My F30 is an MSport 328i, it's streets ahead of my E90 which is still a great car (as is E92) and eons ahead of the 2013 C class C200 and C250 my work colleagues have!
