In a recent interview, the head of BMW's M performance division confirmed that the BMW M7 is a no go. He says the BMW M7 option was taken into account, but the BMW 760 with all-wheel-drive is a good choice for those looking for performance in the company's flagship. The company believes the sales of the BMW M7 will be to low to justify the investment in its development. He said the M version of any of its models does not involve just more power and stiffer chassis. sometimes more the 50% of the car is modified, so the investment in an M car is considerable.
When asked about an entry level model for the M range, he said he is looking at the 1 Series, but he'll have an answer in a year's time.
