I think the auto industry from the perspective of enthusiasts has seen its best days. Automakers are now in the business of selling their brand instead of their passion. BMW's glory days have come and gone, and as Porsche transitions to being an SUV and EV manufacturer they look less and less recognizable as well. They still make a couple world-class cars, but their prices have made them unattainable. Even a Boxster S is like $75k minimum these days. The next generation M2 will likely be close to $70k as well.

Raw and attainable driver's cars have been on their way out. The CUV and electrification armageddon will stick a fork in these cars. The remaining driver's cars that speak to all of a driver's senses will be attainable only to the very wealthy.
