This is all 100% true though?
BMW still makes the M3 correct? And the new model has been pretty much universally hailed for its performance correct?
Universally known for its disproportionate styling and obesity issues as well
Style is subjective. And in any event the M division is primarily (traditionally) renowned for distinctive performance, and if the current M models that facilitated that reputation embody that, then explain how an X1M in any way diminishes that? The ONLY way it could diminish the M legacy is if it does not have class leading performance, which I'm sure it will.
