Relax. The only entity that decides whether a car is an M car or not is BMW. Any car with prefatory 'M' in its name is an M car. If you don't like it, go and complain to BMW
Some M performance cars are much more expensive than M cars (m850i is more expensive than M3, M4 and the same price as M5 competition), so it is not a matter of affordability, it is what suits your need. M3 and M4 are much commoner than m240i
You would sure be hurt if you bought your 'full M car' because of exclusivity (badge whoring) rather than performance. |
A base 7 series is also more expensive than an M2, your point? Price has nothing to do with this...
Mxxx= mid performance tier
Mx = top performance tier
Which is why you will never see an M340i CS or M340i GTS. End of story. |
My points:
For some M owners to stop assuming that people are buying M performance cars because they cannot afford M cars
For people to stop assuming M performance cars are 'wannabes' rather than catering for a specific set of buyers
