I think this is a side effect of "watering down the M brand". Now, when someone wants to buy a "real M", we expect even more from the brand because of the other M-sports..... In other words, if i'm going to spend 50-65k (estimating here) on an M car.... I expect it to perform MUCH higher than the M-Sport version. It's a bit of falling on your own sword. :/
