In short, we should all get used to the M3/4 being a GT car and stop with "m has lost their way" stuff while watching M ship record numbers of cars and release new models. M's "way" is what the bulk of dual-duty buyers want, not what the trackrat niche wants.
Is 3900lb+ a "dual-duty" car anymore? I tried tracking a 4000+ lb E63 wagon and AWD/550hp was fast and fun but you couldn't get away from the weight.. It couldn't keep up the pace for more long due to tire overheat

It seems more like M's way is what the bulk of street only users want, and M are signalling they will walk away from the trackrat niche and leave that niche to modify older m products
