As always, perspective is key. Before G22 production ends we’ll see electric, semi autonomous cars become more common, and perhaps with the exception of select few Porsche models, the GT86 and Miata, the death of manual transmission. Given these unfortunate inevitabilities, a 4,000 pound M440i doesn’t seem too bad.
Also, the lighter, more balanced RWD M440i model is forthcoming as well...

Absolutely agree. Yes, the new 4 series might not be like the E46 M3, but compares to the other new models, such as the Audi S5 etc, it really is and that's something becoming more rare with every year.
