just how everything will become automatic transmission. The small market for manual drivers is no longer worth the cost to make. |

This tech is welcomed IMO, it would only make the car better at performance and economy. I would love to have both an E90 M and the next gen M4 in my stable one day. |

In case there was any doubt that the F80/2 was the first step in the downward trajectory of the M3 brand. I reckon my super low mileage E92 M3 will be worth it's weight in gold by then certainly from the enthusiast perspective if not the financial one.

My friend i don't buy cars for fashion. I see myself as a real petrolhead which admires really great cars. If i ever would go for an RS4, that would be a B7 series. RS5 doesn't work for me. Pointless! On the other hand i'm thinking seriously to purchase the new RS3 Sportback or wait until next year for the RS3 Saloon. Who knows?
BMW start to loose some key elements....the future will tell. * I and my family are huge BMW fans for ages. Imagine how we felt when BMW presented the M4! A BIG disappointment.. |

Honestly I dont understand the hate about the M4. Hating a car because the sound isnt as good as it used to be, and disregarding all the new innovations to chassis and drivetrain.

Very well put.
Clearly the BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Concept showcases the ///M-Car of the future. Quote:

RS3 is smaller and for couple of grams lighter but this doesn't have to do with the whole package. M3 F80 is an excellent car and i'm glad that BMW put again a six cylinder engine to the specific platform. I'm still even thinking to order mines in individual colour. But after these years, to see something called M4...it's hard! I believe that the M3 F80 will be the last of the mohicans. Unfortunately.. |

Was just discussing the other day that I thought the next gen AMG C and M3 would be a hybrid.
I really think it will bring performance to another level. Also, if it increases the longevity of the petrol engine, then bring it on. |

There's still plenty of time for hybrid technologies to perfected and cost less. I just hope that's done a little better then the i8.
