But yes, would have been nice to have kept it as it looks much nicer and remember it being a talking point in the F80/82 press release. Also can't imagine, rear axle wise, it's anything other than a step backwards in terms of performance. They've beefed up the front instead.

Edit: Sorry, didn't see someone had replied to you above with the same.
