You’d rather BMW USA stop “making a big deal” out of their involvement in this event? The entire reason BMW is spending money on this is for marketing/advertising. Of course they’re going to shine a light on their investment. Check your hate.

Seems you are the only one making an issue of the Rebelle Rally being a women's-only event...

It’s telling how BMW didn’t/couldn’t use something like an iX2 in this event and chose an ICE-equipped vehicle instead. 😏

I posted on the preview thread of the car that Id love a Safari version., Clearly BMW had something like that in mind given all the crazy on off roading builds....
YET I did not think it would look like this, I thought the wheels would be a lot bigger. Alas this isnt a Dakar, but just rally car so of course. Kinda think it has potential still but after seeing it kitted out Im not so sure. Dang. Good luck to the ladies!

I'm not totally clear why it hurts so many people for BMW to expand the M line if they're still making amazing cars that "we" want (M2, M5 CS, M3, M4, manuals, M3 touring, etc etc). Maybe people feel that it harms the community to have people who are interested in more practical performance cars feeling like they are M drivers, too? I say more the merrier who love the brand and can subsidize our low volume manual cars. Or maybe folks think because M = Motorsport then every M car needs to be a full on race car? I don't know what races the M5 CS is racing in but it seems like it's been universally lauded as an amazing performance car despite its weight. I know everyone wants the lightweight performance car to make a comeback but the hey-day is gone and there are a couple of options: 1) embrace the future, 2) buy a real sports car, 3) buy an old classic. All honestly fine options. This X2 looks cool, prob sounds good, and feels much better to drive than a GLA - that's a win for the brand in my books.
