I totally didn’t do much research I admit. Basically went in and bought on a whim. The one bit of research I had seen was that the X7M that has been contemplated was being cancelled. But had I known there was the “M” version of my engine coming in 6 months, I probably would have waited.

But yes, to your point, that’s on me — and up to me whether to take the hit or not. (Really think it’ll just be a $10k hit? If so, I can live with that maybe.... and it would allow me to change a couple of the specs on the car that I might have done differently!)

We’ll see. If the ride quality changes at all on the M50i version, I won’t do it. Love the ride as it stands. Love everything about it really. Just wouldn’t mind the extra hp if it’s available.

I also wonder if, in 5 years, or whenever I end up looking for something new, the resale of the 50i will be hurting compared to the M version.

Anyway, interesting thought exercise. Love the car either way.
