Having said that I sat in the new 7 today and am mighty impressed at how comfy it was, not sure it needs an M performance model though... My lady and I were discussing that rather than debating who should drive like usual, we'd be debating who should get the privilege of sitting the back if we owned one of those!

The 3/4 series have so many versions 320, 330, 340 already. Not much room to add an M340 between the 340 and M3, especially considering there isnt that much of a price difference already. The 340 has the performance, just doesnt have the M badge in front of it. The M performance models are great, but they arent true ///M cars. |
Exactly, the M135i and M235i have been huge successes. I don't get why the LCI 340i was not released as the M340i and given some M tweaks. Whatever the debates about marketing we've had etc I think the car would have warranted this.
Unless of course BMW thought they could make more money selling all the bits to do this individually.
