That's what they used to say about us "BMW" purists. At least back then we can always cling to the fantasy that M would be a safe haven.
Look at the run of the mill BMWs now. Driving a 320i, even with a sport trim, is no more exciting than driving a Lexus Whatever250. In fact some might argue that the new gen Camry and Accords are BETTER luxury sport sedans than entry BMW 3 series.
In another generation or two there won't be any special "BMW-ness" or "///M" qualities to spoke of or boast about IMO.

Agree, but I believe future owners aren't going to be as concerned with how it drives because the car will drive itself.
