They should definitely release the E46 M3 again with zero changes, or maybe they could fix the rear floor panel/subframe mount points that crack, Vanos system that fails, rod bearings that blow up, constant pressure valve that leaks and about 10 other issues with the E46. Also they need to make a seat low enough for a normal human to fit in.
I know there is a lot of sarcasm in that statement but I am pretty sure they already make a modern E46, it is called the M2 and has no where near that amount of issues as an E46. |
Most enthusiasts would take the flawed e46, z3, etc over their modern anodine counterparts. The reliable Toyota like f generation cars are reliable sure but they are also boring.
If you just want reliable and boring there's no reason to buy a BMW other then badge. Many other car companies do reliable even better.
I'll take driving involvement and fun any day over a modern f series BMW and all that brings with it.
I think many others would as well, which is the reason for the original statement.
I find very little in common between the m2 and e46 m3 aside from 2 doors and a lot of marketing.
