I don't trust magazines with Bimmerphile corporate drones. MT has been one of the least biased reviewers in the mainstream magazine sector. Especially when it reviews the boys in Bavaria... So I trust when they give a thumbs up to a BMW review.

Agreed.

Offer it in xDrive and I might be a potentia buyer, but until then I will be eyeballing an Audi or (shudder) VW

An X-drive M car? That would like kill M heritage driving dynamics. So why the must have AWD in your sports application?

I could really give a s**t about BMW's "M heritage" since they have sullied it with all their recent offerings (an "M" SUV!). I just want a performance winter car which seems Audi, VW, Ford and Subaru seem capable to offer, whereas BMW are apparently falling behind Chevy in RWD performance. I have my Z for my sports application thank you very much.

OK... Well I only asked cuz you said you'd take this car in AWD. This isn't the 235i M-Sport, this is "The M2"

It's true, that BMW as a whole company, sucks, but this particular model seems to be a benchmark model, though, I'll reserve judgement till I test drive one. Obviously almost all of us have Z's here and love them. In my case I'm not looking to replace a Z. I'm looking to add to a Z.

I wasn't asking to rustle your Jimmie's. I was just curious why an AWD M? That in reality, having driven an E46 would completely suck. But yeah, you're on the right track with those other cars you like. Audi, and such. Or you have the 335xi M sport. I don't know what your budget is but I think the jaguar XE and F-Pace would be some hot looking alternatives.

Good luck on your search bruh.

I am in the same boat...I test drove the M4 in MT and AT, which solidified my commitment to keeping my Z and looking for an AWD for the winter. Every little mod I have done to the Z since then has only strengthened my love for it.

No rustled Jimmy...just having a conversation about cars, which I appreciate your comments.

Since I have had no problems (because of my current situation) using my Z as a DD even in the winter I am in no rush to spend a load of money on a new car, but when I do I think the Audi TT RS or VW Golf R400 (if that happens in the US) might be on my radar in terms of price and capability.

Same here... no rush for me either. I just want to expand the garage so I can switch up driving experiences. But I want a car leaning toward traditional sports car road manners. So I'm taking my sweet time to make the right purchase/s
