And dont kid yourself on who does what to obtain what they have, in the US lease deals can make Ms nearly the same actual cost as a performance line car, and they are everywhere and not exclusive in the US.
Such madness about a stupid badge, let your egos go people!!!!!  |
This is not an ego thing. I don't even own an M division product. I'm just a BMW enthusiast who sees this marketing gimmick for what it is.
There are significant engineering differences between true M division products and "M performance" products. As others have pointed out there are even different VIN numbers.
Every manufacturer of luxury goods has different grades of their product. That's what makes the finest and most expensive end of their line desirable. BMW is bastardizing their most bespoke product line.
