Inside Line says: How many more "special editions" of the M3 will hit the street before the next generation arrives?

UH, Inside Line, you do realize you're running the same BMW add again just because BMW decided to add a color and maybe a few details to go with the color theme, right?

These days, I find myself despising BMW more and more...
This overrated (yet) another Limited Edition of M3 is bordering (maybe has passed) on pathetic attempt.
The Ultimate Driving Machine is BMW no longer...

I like a cool car as much as the next car enthusiast but personally I am not crazy about calling any road car "competition special". Not a political correctness fanatic but we have enough maniacs on the road who think just because they can afford to buy a fast car, they are Michael Schumacher. If BMW calls this a competition edition, then it should only be allowed on the track. Last thing we need is another idiot doing stoplight drag races in a crowded street. Public roads are not place for competitive driving.
