Thank you I totally forgot about those two:
One is not so desirable in my eyes (GT)
and
the other one is so desirable to me, i still think it sci-fi (GC)

I am still trying to adjust myself to this potential number shift...

Isn't the new M6 essentially a coupe version of the M5 after all? I don't hear anyone all up in arms over the M5 being only a sedan while M6 is the coupe version of it.
Because there was never been a M5 coupe... so as coupe version between the 5series and 7 series, calling the M6 is more than logical...

As opposed to the M3 which originally started as a Coupe and to the enthusiast mind such as yourself, the M3 reference is always associated with the coupe, Even for the E36 version, there wasn't a Sedan M3 (sadly)

see the dilemna now?
