I do not think that it is quite so obvious that I missed the electrical program. But I thought it was equally obvious that we are discussing combustion engine cars in this thread.

And I assume that you have also read Scott's post - it will be a few years until BMW can really mass produce CF cars. The new M3 will certainly not be a part of this, which was the point that I was trying to make (and which you quite obviously missed).
