My take is that numbers don't quite do it for me anymore. These G8x guys don't get it. All these cars are super fast, tall gearing and barely streetable.

BMW's motto "freude am Fahren", has been increasingly lost in the new iterations. Numbers are one thing, but the experience has been getting more and more dulled with electro gizmos, more insulation, more weight.

I can clearly tell you, that my next ICE and probably last ICE car, I want to try something different. Porsche, Corvette, Caddy etc. Time to give another brand a try.

Even EVs... compare the Audi E-tron vs. whatever BMW has to offer. It's not close.

I simply don't care how much better or faster the G8X may be on paper or real world. Iam certain I am not alone either.
