Using the excuse of the premium they ask for the 6 series over the 5 series to justify the 4 series over 3 series price increase is also ridiculous. Even though they share almost everything mechanically, the 6 series has always been a model on its own, more than a 5 series coupe. More so when the beautiful E24 came out.

I'm really not too fond of many of the decisions recently made by BMW.

Beautiful render BTW
I believe ur missing the point.

Neither the M3, nor the M4 is the car most want here. Without question, given the same price most would choose an 1M over a M3. The 1M is small, tossible phun with enless smiles & 30mpg's.

The 1M was a skunkworks project under Dr Segler.. the //M2 is the succesor to the 1M and it will have a CF top, etc.. But... BMW missed the mark & has slated that monster for 2015'ish.. ..so track-junkies wait!
