It just hurts to see cars like the AMG GT, and the Rebadged VW R8 halo cars, while BMW is putting out 'Special Edition' cars like the M6 Competition Edition or our Halo car, the i8. Our competitors are thriving with Twin Turbo V8's and naturally aspirated V10's.
I understand that times have changed, but we can't just rest on our laurels. It's a sad day when you start hearing a Mercedes is 'more fun' to drive than it's BMW counterpart.

Wake me up when Mercedes offers a car that doesn't weight 4000 lbs and offer a MT.
Otherwise, no care. |
The AMG's C63 is only 100 something pounds heavier than a M3. The manual is dead. Probably getting dropped from the next generation M5. That point is moot. The TT V8 under the hood of the AMG C63 is only 10 pounds heavier than the TT I6 under the hood of the M3.
