AFAIK most, if not all, BMW M models are more lightweight than their direct competitors from AMG and Quattro?

Agreed! So far X4MC is on my shopping list. It would be helpful to have another 4-door alternative.

I was going to say the same thing. I thought that was the initial point when they turned the M3 into a 4 door with the new naming convention??

So the renderings are growing on me but are they not planning on putting the traditional M side mirrors? Also, why is it badges on the side too? I dig M cars having M badges but come on.

Yes, but S58 is a beast that pulls 550 hp on dyno. Even the heavy stock X3 MC runs 3.5 s 0-60, so imagine M4 GC with 200-300 pounds less.

A future gen M2GC would be more compelling to me, but honestly it would probably be the size of an f80 and I could get that right now.

"BMW has committed to significant modifications over the 3 Series to provide the 4 Series with greater individuality and increased standing within the line-up."
Well they sure as hell pulled that off without a hitch. |
