BMW got their start by making fantastic drivers cars for driving enthusiasts. Today, BMW is more likely to make a car that appeals the the masses and has left the people who helped build the brand to what it is, out in the cold.
Who are we to argue and I'm sure BMW will quickly point to the fact that they're selling more cars today than they ever have.
So this leaves us with fewer cars in the line-up that appeal to us. I'm with you on the models I'm considering from BMW: 228, 235 and M2.

The major problem is that this GT350 is going to have over 500hp and more than likely cost about the same as the M2 with 380hp. I'm finding it hard to justify paying the same for less. The GT350 is going to be a fully baked car and will be able to compete at a global level in every way. They are serious with this car, and it shows.
If this starts under 60 I'll be shocked, because this truly is a fully baked car. I will also be pissed.
