Time by time , everything changes , but my opinion ,if it sounds , we re safe ! Ev are coming to take on every petrol vehicle , which is not bad , but at least some generations were born with those sounds etc , new generations , wont even know what was petrol .

A lot of people fearing the changes i see, Imagine when the first M3 Phev or full EVM3 comes gosh that will be the talk of months on how BMW lost it's way "Insert the same things over and over again here"
Gonna be cool owning an EVM3 i even like the name already ! :-) We just need the third party market to come in and start telling us how to be able to tune electric cars on our own. The only thing i am skeptic about is the part when the cars gets to that point that autonomous driving will be the thing, then i think car's won't be the same ever again. In Sweden they are already in the talks of creating so called "car fleets" if you wan't to be driven to work you just summon a car to you and it drives ya to work. Then when leaving work you summon a car and it takes you home. That part i am not so sure about.

The engine and exhaust sound are part of what makes driving cars exciting (to me at least), so removing that will remove a large part of why I am interested in sporty cars. |

Unless I'm wrong the ZF8s are all PRND and move left for sport mode and shift for manual. This has the DCT/SMG R is left N is center and manual mode is right and a right tap again gives you drive. No park? Maybe that's why there's an electric brake? Unless someone can confirm the new M5 is like this I'm skeptical they would reprogram the whole thing to go back to an old style when the appeal of the ZF8 is its cheap sturdy and they can put it in everything easily. |

If you want to have fun in driving you need to buy older cars. New cars are getting more and more boring.
Handbrake lever is gone. 6 speed manual might be gone. They are getting pig heavy. I am more and more thinking of buying older M3 and use that as a fun car for the weekend and trackdays. And buy a nice daily car next to it. |

Not feeling that shifter area at all...and yes, as others have said, it looks like an older Audi.

Eh.. so it looks like any other modern-day luxury car interior I don't hate it... My 981 Cayman was 6mt with an electronic handbrake in the driver's footwell! I guess that's not a real car since it didn't have a proper manual handbrake..... To me, the e-handbrake is whatever. I only use it to park and it's fine; hill hold works well enough (had it in my Cayman and have it in my M2).
The interior is, so far, unoffensive. I'm still curious how the front end is going to look, considering Scott aluded to the fact that the M3 will continue to share the M4's front end, and the word is the 4 series' tall, vertical grills may be controversial.

is that an Rcf-m? nerds lol
I heard they are selling like crazy. Auto manufacturers just keep commoditzing down their products and wonder why sales are shit. The next mustang will be based on the SUV platform/chassis and is expected to weigh more than a challenger. Who in the eff is gonna by that trash?? |
