This feels like BMW is intentionally avoiding the challenge altogether. They need to invest in making icons that can rival 918 and trickle down the motorsport DNA instead of pleasing bean counters who cannot offer any vision for future models other than financial plans.
The 918 is indeed a desirable future, DCT and high cylinder count, high revving NA engine

Just one problem how do you shrink $1m budget to $100k . I’m with you all the way but it’s a challenge for sure. The NSX gives a glimmer of hope that something can be done on a shoe string but it seems M is eyeing a 4 banger hybrid for the M3.
