Yeah, I'm aware of the naming, but until someone from BMW comes in and says its going to be called M4, it *might* still be called M3, regardless of the body. No one is right or wrong, until the day it comes out, we don't know squat.
This 'rumour' you mention, might be true. The M3 name has too much history to turn around and say there is going to be a M3, M3.14 and M4 (sedan, touring and coupe).
