JJacksonIII wroteFake engine noise just doesn’t do it for me 🤷🏻♂️I doubt you'd think it would be a sterile driving experience when you're throwing this thing hard into corners and then getting whip lash when you're exiting. I think this thing is going to leave some stains in some underwear.
LuckyL wroteOk gramps.Ew.
It’s not an M. It’s some EV Abomination. Why do they have to mix them up?
Yes, I know half of you are gonna start quoting me and want to tell me all the reasons why EV is the future and who am I to tell people what an M car should be.
No, I don’t care, we can have different opinions. I really just don’t think they should consider these M cars. They’re a new class of BMW.
ynguldyn wroteI've never "experienced" one, but I am EV-curious.Prediction: this thread will be split between the people who've experienced EVs and know how wild this thing could be and the luddites.
Edit: forgot about another type: the people who mourn the looks of the previous generations of BMW with every new model, only to come back 7 years later and mourn the look they were kicking the previous time.
mirob wroteIt’s funny because it’s actually grown on me tremendously. I’m actually shopping for one right now. 😂😂😂Nobody? LOL. Ok.
zen0s wroteLess than the cost of a new motor in the current M3. Won’t have tk worry about that though. Out of warranty replacement rate of batteries in EVs and PHEVs sold since 2013 is less than 2%.It will be fast and heavy just like any other performance EVs. Wonder what M battery replacement will cost...

LuckyL wroteThe reality is that a car is a car. Eventually, people like you will get old and live in a nursing home, and the current generation will only know EVs. Who knows, maybe when that generation gets old they’ll be saying, “back in my day, cars drove on the ground, not in the sky!” Or something to that effect. In other words, you’re thinking with your emotions rather than rationality. The world will move in, with or without you.I’m 26 dawg 😂
I’m just not liking what I’m seeing, admittedly which is very little, considering all the camo.
And all I’m saying is that they should keep this in line with the “i” series, like an “iM3” Instead of it actually being an M car that’s also completely electric when they have a different designation for they’re all electric non-M cars. 🤷🏻♂️

jmack123 wroteI guess what's irritating people is it seems like it's only "moving on" or "moving differently" because of regulations rather than what's best or what people want.The reality is that a car is a car.

Ragged Edge wroteLMAO Ya, good luck with that bud. Do you save the manual people out there in la la land ever hear the words you speak out into the world... ? A manual transmission quad motor EV... ?Good looking shape! I’m glad it’s not too much of a departure from the existing M3… as far as we can tell from these pics. I hope there is a manual version!
What's next... First you guys want an AWD G80 M3 with a manual (strange request to begin with if you ask me) & now this... Just let it go & give it a rest already. These ideal world purists type thoughts are pretty exhausted in the year 2025.
akkando wroteAt one time “people” wanted to own slaves. Who says “people” are the best judge of what’s right or wrong? A government is merely an incentivization engine. One that is supposed to incentivize desirable behavior, and disincentivize undesirable behavior.I guess what's irritating people is it seems like it's only "moving on" or "moving differently" because of regulations rather than what's best or what people want.
LuckyL wroteThanks for proving my point. The world needs less emotionally compromised men, respectfully.Fuck your rationality. Respectfully.

jmack123 wroteReading is fundamental, but comprehension is key. You’re throwing out a 2% replacement rate like it magically eliminates the issue of massive costs when batteries do fail. That 2% still represents thousands of people stuck with a repair bill that can rival the price of a new car. Stop cherry-picking stats to downplay legitimate concerns.Less than the cost of a new motor in the current M3. Won’t have tk worry about that though.
