Although I like the current lineup I think that the M badge is loosing the Persona it used to carry. Whatever happened to just doing SELECT cars and doing them better than everyone else? I just hope that they don't fall by the wayside and become like AMG with the "tacked on" bodykit look and where they'll stick a big engine in everything and slap a badge on the back. It seems that soon we'll even have a M model to rival that hideous R63. They are too busy trying to make the Ms more out there for the average person who doesn't know what the hell it is or what it stands for. While we the enthusiasts are getting screwed over.
