Fully agree. It would actually be refreshing if the F8X has less power than the E9X but still being the faster car in all aspects due to a superior and lighter chassis. It would be a nice signal from the masters of M that the time of ever heavier and powerful cars is over and that weight reduction is now the name of the game. I'm also much more concerned about the steering and all communicative aspects of the car. Will it retain the telepathic and natural feel of the earlier M3s or go he way of all other F-models with a number more artificial feel.
