What does that suggest? That the next M3 will be even more spectacular.
As M technology drifts down to "regular" BMWs, including M "performance" cars, that's a good thing as far as I'm concerned.

I am with you sir; had several M's over the years, many 911's, etc. The new M340i is actually quite comparable in weight, size and easily surpasses the performance envelope of the sacrosanct E39 M5, the holy grail of M's according to some. This is also known as progress and there is nothing wrong with it, and it does mean the next M3 will likely be a terrific car!
