Call us dramatic. But some of us have been driving BMW's 20-30+ years. It is somewhat sad to see the direction BMW is going.

I know some of the young people on here don't understand. They want everything to have an M-badge. But to many it is a secred thing, or atleast it was.

There is one thing the Cayenne can do that the these M-suv's can't, that is go offroad. They are actually one of the more capable offroad vehicles for sale today.

One car that will remain NA, is the 911 GT3. One car I wish BMW would draw some inspiration from.
