Coz it shows the 1st M3 has its roots in real race day motor sports. Translated: Single minded pursuit of the art of engineering. Two doors is enough. And a manual. Now they've got all manner of gadgets that dilutes where it matters most; Driving. U know A to B via D and Genting Sempah. Not single seaters which no daily driver can relate to. Sat nav? Who cares? We want to be lost in a BMW. It gives you plenty of reason to be late for the board meet. But I guess that's how things go nowadays.

Spare parts are also difficult to source unlike overseas. Thats the reason why there are many in Malaysia who opt for japanese engines in their E30 when big horsepower is desired. Dj_VaniLLa,
