The point is that it's been very easily dismissed (almost universally on this site) due to the aesthetics, but it's a stellar performer.

We all know its a good performer, the M340i has been out for almost two years, that point has already been made.
My point was more towards your comment about a car like this being released 10-years ago, saying we would have lost our minds, my response was that indeed a car did come out like this ten years ago and we did all lose our minds, the original 335i. 4.8 seconds to 60 in 2006 was a huge deal, just like sub 4-second cars are now. The M440i has impressive numbers, but this is nothing new, BMW has been putting out impressive numbers for years, case in point, the 335i. Even today, the numbers are still impressive and ahead of the current 3/4 30i.
