Anyone else think the ///M 'build your own' should be special?

I think BMW should make a BMW.com/M build your own. Maybe show a flash video with the chosen build your own vehicle racing through the track and then throughout the video, maybe showing off some of the features of the car. Making the site interactive. A separate microsite would be really cool.

It would be nice to see a separate site just for M that covers everything from the cars to the engines. From development and such...

Doesn't AMG have this??

That would be awesome. I've pretty much built every configuration at work, so I need something new to do.

I remember Audi had a video when I was 17 for the RS4. I used to drool over it. That would be great if BMW started doing this too.

M cars are unique. They deserve their own site! I think AMG's do have their own website, come to think of it!

Would you dedicate an area on your desk (I mean your desk - not the desktop LOL) as a track ... I can see you never ever get any work done then

This is an interesting idea - I'm sure BMW M Marketing has already considered it. I'm not sure why it wouldn't have been implemented. I would certainly use it.

It would really help people understand ///M. I went to AMG's website and they even give you a History overview of their engines!!!
