I'm not sure what you're talking about but there are plenty of people who own both brands.
Enthusiast like myself who own M cars are not going to stick around for Bmw to continue the strange design language. I didn't buy Bmw for what it cost. I own Bmw for the way it makes you feel the driving experience and so forth.. if I wanted a car to go to point a and point B. I would've bought a Honda or a Volkswagen or a Lexus |

Yes and yes The G87 is my last hope to stay with BMW. If the M2 doesn't appeal to me after the reveal, I'll hold onto my F80 as long it takes to get a 992 allocation. When the F8x came out, I had an emotional "had it have it" moment. Couldn't wait to get my hands on one. The current BMW generations have not created that reaction. It's very meh. I'm not spending close to $80k on a car that doesn't excite me or for a design language I "have to get used to". |

And it's not so much the design or the enlargement of the front grills. It's the overall awkward proportions of the new M3 and M4. The proportions don't flow the arch lines all of the weird design language it's like five different people designed the car in different sections. The M3 also just looks awkward with the size that it's grown into.. it's just too big and it just doesn't look like an enthusiast car anymore it looks like an old man trying to be cool.
Unfortunately what we're seeing now Bmw voted on and budget for years in years in years ago with the board voting, back when they started releasing the F series. The next generation M cars are already been voted for and budgeted for.. most likely they will be electrification. And the LCI.. that's around the corner has already been approved and budgeted. companies approve their designs years and years in advance before the market even knows what's happening. |

I just made the mistake of reading the front page thread on the BMW price increases. The price increase on M models is through the roof which means the G87 price will also see a huge jump over what was initially planned.

This is a first for me..... I've never seen a company use a rival company's product to promote their brand. How is that even legal? Ah whatever, bring on the reveal already!

Now that I have the money to get it, they screw it up with their new design language..... I am hoping that the new M2 be bmw German design.....not this new Bs. I also can keep saving for few more months to get a base 992 but where I live is not so safe to have a Porsche ..... |

Just out of curiosity, how old is everyone? Im 24 and this ad feels in no way as something I'd find as "hip" or "cool". I get companies are in it for the money and enthusiasts are often put on the back burner as we don't supply them with the cash flow that the general public does. Which is why you would think they'd have an ad catered to their enthusiasts when it comes to a M vehicle. I mean just look at Dodges ads for the challenger and charger.

I can understand the marketing hype around this reveal but I am confused on the strategy.
They could have just used the camo cars they were posting on Instagram a few weeks ago and a short sound clip. I need to work for their marketing team.
