If so, then you are doing the opposite of "diminishing".
I try to counterargue those portraying to post opinions as "facts" and show that sometimes (quite often) those "facts" might not be so black and white.

In trying to argue that, it might seem that I am biased the other way. When you play Devils advocate that is often how it's perceived.

I really like the new G8x gen cars, however a F80 is probably going to be my next fun car. My son recently called the F8x the modern E30, and I think that was a good description! It will still look awesome for a long time, even though it looks like yesterdays design (just like the E30 M3 still looks amazing).

I really like the F8x lively and nimble handling as well as it's more characterful DCT gearbox.

And that it's lighter than the G8x (but thankfully the G8x isn't as heavy as feared).
