Quite the attitude with 3 posts under your belt. Yes, Porsche goes a different route which makes sense for them for various reason. M models however always follow the 'fate' of the models they're based on, e.g. EOP of the E90 was also EOP of the M3 sedan. As Jason pointed out, your assumption that BMW stopped M3 sedan production because nobody ordered one is factually incorrect.
