definitely frustrating that of all the "traditional M features" BMW has shown a ruthless effort to evolve with the market (auto, turbo, xdrive, more lux features, suvs) the one they have not is the significantly delayed market launch.... really doesn't make sense in this day of instant expectations. It feels like they are just delaying for the sake of a delay... There is enough information out in the market for enthusiasts who feel strongly about G80 over F82 that they are just going to wait it out, costing BMW sales. Conversely the average pigeon consumer just buying the M3/M4 for the badge wont even care about which platform is newer and just buy the coupe or sedan based on how many doors they want

it would probably be more productive for them to invest in pulling forward the 4 series launches going forward to align them closer to the 3 series
