| | I don't think I'm going to buy another BMW M car again. Nothing except the E92 M3 and E60 M5 in their lineup tickles my fancy. I mean... Why the hell did they become a badge whore?! They put the ///M badge on the back of the X5 and X6. There's no point to either of those two vehicles besides marketing and badge-whoring. What the hell is the point of shoving a twin-turbo 4.4L V8 into a 4500lb automatic transmission SUV?! They preach the fuel efficiency of turbocharging versus naturally aspirated engines... That piece-of-shit still gets something like 12 miles to the gallon... I still say that weight cutting is the best solution to satisfy all the needs of efficiency, acceleration, and cornering. I'd rather drive a Porsche 911 Carrera S with 385 horsepower, weighs about 3000lbs, and gets 18/25 gas mileage. I guarantee I can handily defeat an X5M or X6M in all aspects of the track and visit the gas station half as often. I'm sick of porky cars.
