Money talks and if a FWD based M will sell they will make it.

BTW: It took about 5 minutes to find the exact sales figures per make/model of 2018 in Germany. They are published here: https://www.kba.de/DE/Statistik/Fahr...ller_node.html (only in German)

I'm with you. You can find them saying we would never do X on all their recent new products. Especially FWD.

Atleast it hasn't ruined the brand totally. It's not replacing anything so much as expanding the line up.

IMO, M as a brand is basically dead. Why not make a new 1M and pair it with a IMSA TCR race car which has mostly fwd cars anyway. Would expand the M division racing car offerings and clearly somebody likes FWD cars.

And tbh, Golf R is pretty fun. At this point to me the stupid grill M colors and M badges on every panel of every base 320i is more offensive to me than an AWD transverse M car.
