If they somehow manage to fuck up the G87 M2 as well then bye bye
...I too hope the G87 is the spiritual successor to the E30 - E46 M era, otherwise all hope is lost...

And i agree, bmw is missing a marketplace oppprtunity by not offering a smaller and lighter 2+2 no bigger than E46.
You are right, many of us that owned the E30 and E46 do not need such big cars at this point in life and would like to stay in the bmw family ....but bmw is no longer making a car that fits our needs.
Out of the unbelievable number of models that now exist, not one fills the place of the enthusiast that wants a small nimble sports coupe like the ones that made them famous to begin with.
They could do a 3200lb car if they wanted to, they just choose not to and thats the problem.
