He had Mini for four years, which also means that he was with the BMW brand for 16 years. I have no doubt that he's following a professional approach since he was appointed head of BMW M. I'd still prefer a guy with passion for the brand.

No doubt about that. Like I said, Dr. K is not the worst thing that could have happened to M, but just as little is he the best thing that could have happened to M.
