Judging by the plethora of M5/M6s sitting on BMW dealerships I'm not sure this is the best strategy for BMW because the enthusiasts will go to another brand who puts them first. And the average consumer won't really feel the need to buy the M version because if you're judging by logic rather than emotion M cars make little sense.
