Yeah, it is what it is....everyone does this now.

I especially love when people who either have never owned a real M or have owned a lowly-ass one make this argument (that the M name means nothing now).

No offense, but a lot of M people thought M cars were going south when BMW started coming out with M cars for friggin 2 series and 4 series, etc.

The M3 is iconic (and thus an exception) but I never saw the point of any other M cars besides for the 5 series and higher models....

It's the same with Benz....like really, you make an AMG for the CLA? What do those cost? $40k?
