Really??
How does a $78K 4.8 V8 360hp compare to a $40K 3.2 V6 265hp??
perhaps maybe the 3 series coupe?

Unfortunately, ever since the M1 of 30 years ago, BMW has passed on every opportunity tp build a supercar. Supercars are great for brand image but are money losers. Don't hold your breath on BMW building one now. Such a shame from an enthusiast's perspective.
