People saying BMW is following the money are absolutely correct because if they don't they would be teetering on the edge of relevance in the market like Cadillac. BMW's direct competition has always been Audi and MB. Not sure why so many here seem to make the incorrect conclusion that emulating Porsche would be good for the bottom line of the company.

Yep, its the market that dictates what BMW has to do. Cadillac is nothing more than an offshoot of the exact cars we despise within the BMW lineup(think what you see being pumped out of GM). This IS their M-line(luxury, performance, masterful tech, materials, bla bla bla).
It'll DEFINITELY be a car I will go test drive and think seriously about in about 2 years when it's time to move on from My F10-M5-CP
