I think it's totally consistent with what BMW has always done with their range. As the performance ceiling of the M3 raises ever higher (400hp V8? Christ.) Then bmw "needs" a midrange sporty coupe. Now, what I'd like to see is this:
328, blah blah, buy this for a BMW.
335i, sport touring. Faster than an E46 M3, fast enough for you, extend your penis, how about a cabriolet? Sure, coming right up...fag. And hey, I mean, it's a sporty coupe if you're not totally hardcore. Lots of torque, good fuel economy, what's not to love?
M3, for serious contenders only. CF Roof, CF front panels, spartan interior, supportive cloth seats. No sunroof, no convertable, no leather, no bullshit automatic. Oh, you want leather? Fuck you, go buy a 335i.
Now, that won't happen, the M3 will be even MORE of a heavy pig eurotrashluxosport coupe, but it'll be fast as the dickens, and no one will care.
