And M drivers want fast cars and don't give a $hit about practicality.
Even if BMW would make a wagon M3, it wouldn't account for 5% of M3 sales. So no business case...

An M3 wagon could be cool, but I agree it would be serving a smaller market. Even so, it's not a valid generalization to say M drivers don't care about practicality. Beside the performance and handling, M cars are easy to live with as a daily drivers, more so than little 2 seaters anyway, and that certainly factors in to some people's buying decisions. Wagons, maybe due to a stigma, just don't sell as well as SUVs/crossovers, but there are always those few who prefer wagons. If you were going to own one car, ideally it would be one that wouldn't limit you in any way, whether it's practicality or fun factor. I think the only compromise is wagons don't usually look as good as the sedans they're based off of, but that's subjective and there are exceptions.
