Probably going a little bit astray from topic here, but this is an excellent point. I live in an area that is very friendly to nuclear power, near one of the original Manhattan project sites that is now a nuclear energy research site. (Hanford site, Pacific Northwest National Lab) New experimental reactor designs are being installed in the near future as pilot projects. Interesting article below:

I'd love to know what that entails one day. It seems fascinating simply by the metre fact that it involves physics

Honoured to know you (kinda)

Wait but technically isn't the X3M an M car also

Ahh yes one of the problems with BMW and their marketing.

Anyway they could have called this car POS CS and I would have bought it. It's a winner

"Technically" the X3M and X4M are M-SUV's, not M-Cars. We should start a new thread to hash that out if anyone disagrees.
