And, if the carbon-ceramic brake option makes production, probably even more. Base price will likely eclipse $70k now that they will have the M3 to fill the $60k-$70k starting price slot. For those who want every last option (thereby negating all the weight savings of the new chassis, incidentally ), a $90k M4 does not seem unlikely. And that's before we even start talking about the convertible (which of course utterly decimates the weight savings ).
90k for a two door M3. That's what you're basically saying. That's just nuts - no way I can justify that. And then they make the "affordable" M car in such low numbers that a normal person can't get one.

All this kind of shit does is push me elsewhere....

I'm sure it will be nice but a 90k 3 series? What a joke. And no, my expectations don't change because BMW decided to change the numbering mechanism.
