Sections: //1M\\, //M\\, Video Feb 5th, 2012 6 Comments To ring in Super Bowl Sunday we bring you a short video via M-Power about what makes M cars so great. Balance. As is shown by the 1M, balance is more important than 0-60 sprints or top speed. It is the corners that shave seconds off of lap times and what truly matter.

After a long day of interviews at the North American International Auto Show Todd and Matt caught up with BMWNA’s M Boss Matthew Russell with an impromptu interview that covered a range of topics. First up we talk 3 Series and the fact that the NAIAS this year is all about 3er. But then we quickly move onto the M5 and why Mr. Russell loves the X5M but thinks the M5 is hands-down the best car in the world.

Last August Autoblog went public with a story about a diesel version of the M5. The problem was that the story was more about reading between the lines than directly quoting anyone at M. Because of that, M immediately denied making the statement and asked Autoblog to revise their story. And in this case M was right as I was actually there and heard what was said.

We’ve reported on several occasions that M has hinted at developing it’s own car that is not based on a standard ‘series’ BMW platform. Now we have some veiled references from M themselves (courtesy of Insideline).

Pretty vague if you ask us. But still it’s intriguing. Should M go the route of producing a bespoke sports car? Would you be interested?

There was no talking about future offerings, so no F80 M3 info or anything specific about the M6 aside from it is coming next summer. What he was able to answer gave us a great deal more information about what goes into making an M.
