This appointment is actually very advantageous for not only BMW M. but BMW also. As he is one of the key principals involved with the original R8 Project and has expert knowledge in the application of sustainable assistance with performance cars. BMWs are not going to evolve into Audis. As many believe they will.
The GM comparisons with BMW are old and have become tedious to compare with because BMW is not run as GM was and neither is most other premium manufacturers and never will they be.
GM proved the mighty can still fall.

I know you now have FWD BMWs. Again, what a fail. BMW has spent the last 80 (?) years talking about the advantages of RWD, which are many.
I am not impressed with the R8 project. How hard can it be to take the Gallardo chassis, engine, gearbox into a different shell? Hardly ground breaking.
His push regarding the etron would make him a good candidate for the 'i' division. M? Not so much
I have no idea why you mention GM, as I have not.
