What most disturbs me;

It`s ever increasing size. While world wide downsizing is common, this car has missed that opportunity IMHO.

The engine is downsized all right, but that is half the job.

Big cars lack sportiness, big cars are more like really GT cars, nothing wrong with that, but an M3/4 could do better IMHO.

Maybe the upcoming M2 will do the job, we`ll see in time.
That's how I feel about it. I'll get an F80 some time in the future when I'm ready for a torquey bigger car. The F80 is closer to an E39 M5 successor in my mind than the E60 or F10, which makes it awesome but I want something smaller. I am very interested in finding out about an M2. That will be the enthusiasts car.
