 | Re: Interview with CEO of M-GmbH I thought Gerhard Richter was the head of ///M? I can understand them not building an M3 touring but why cancel the E92 CSL!?? What is wrong with these guys!

| Re: Interview with CEO of M-GmbH It's not M's CEO decision what to produce, and what not. BMW AG Board of Directors makes all the decisions. Based on ... marketing & financial aspects. They approve only what it sells well, and is profitable enough. I guess they figured out X5 M & X6 M will bring much more money than eg. Z4 M, M3 CSL, or M7. The money (profit-hungry investors) has killed the spirit! Very sad. |

| Re: Interview with CEO of M-GmbH its okay to invest in areas where its easy to gain money, in the end its this money which gets invested in new developments but at the same time they shouldn't forget their heritage and their core audience and questioning a Z4M, is in my opinion crazy |
