Exactly!! I jumped in on this thread not to puff my chest because I drive a bad azz M3 CS. In fact... my next car could very well be a tuned and lowered M340 x drive.. To me... this thread is a marketing debate. And very good debate at that. My position stands. M should be reserved for top performers only. Not whored across the entire line.
