Every previous Z that M touched became instant classics.
Just let the M Division bless this next one and let the results do the talking.

I don't even care that the ///M division didn't get a crack at it. That car was flawed going all the way back to the drawing boards in Munich. Management purposely wanted to build an overpriced "grand tourer" type car. They literally ditched their loyal roadster customers.
The E89 was the first Bimmer to start the trend of numb isolating cars. The F01, F10, and F30 came right after which were all very un-BMW-like to put it kindly. All the SUVs got neutered as well. I'll only give the 7er a pass because of it's segment.
