We already know that it will be the most powerful BMW production car ever built and that it will feature a first-ever V8 plug-in hybrid.

I mean.

That just reinforces my "ain't looking back" mindset I have....

I have my E9, E23 and E38. Had almost 30 years with the 2002. Nowhere else to go but DOWN from there with any of the new cars.... and damn fast if you ask me....

Seems like some BMW designers saw the Cybertruck and said, "hold my beer."
