100% agree with all been said. They just don’t seem to understand or care
Somehow, Frohlich portrays an experience that he thinks I want but which definitely doesn’t match my own. BMW made its reputation with me as being the Ultimate Driving Machine and CSL was the pinnacle of that. I will always want that communicative chassis and steering with that distinctive feeling and feedback. A real sense of occasion, a thrill and a joy to drive. To answer Frohlich point, would I walk past the E82 to get to the F87? No.... Why was the swap F32 back to E92 V8 made...
I've been luck enough to have had BMW cars for over 20 years but personably feel M brand no longer priorities that halo and ultimate driving machine experience but maximum profits with minimum investment. Perhaps I’m wrong and I’ve got to that age where I’m suffering from nostalgia sickness. I also think it’s an unfortunate sign of the times when companies ignore the desires their true dedicated support base and believe in there own marketing PR bullshit.
This continued path of lets add more power to combat the lardiness doesn’t wash anymore
