I didn't derail it- I was simply stating that calling someone out is not always the best thing to do as I could be a BMW employee with knowledge trying to steer people in the right direction- it happens here and elsewhere all the time. Maybe it didn't come across that way. My apologies.

The new M3 has over 400 people working on it at the time being and this fall will be crunch time to get things final. It will be interesting to see how when it comes to market next year how people will accept the technology.

One of the technologies is currently being used by another German company to great reviews and fan fare while BMW's implementation has not been given the same view. With the F80, the technology from that other German company will be used so if it is not received well BMW could always say "Well it is identical to so-and-so so how can it not be as good"? That tech is still under debate during the testing but if the car is to meet the ambitious fuel economy numbers it almost certainly needs to be in there.
