No, it's not. Why do so many of you think this? RS6 is E-class AMG, M5, CTS-V competitor in size, power, and luxury. Just because you throw a long roof on an M3 doesn't push it up market by a whole class. Also X3M is virtually same price as G8x.
I mean, if you want to pay $130k for an M3, then ok.  |
Sure, if they release an M5 touring.
I probably misspoke when I said a direct competitor. What I meant is that there will be a ton of people who can't justify $150k+ for an RS6, but will happily drop $100k+ for an M3 touring. The M3 touring in the US would fill that void in the market, particularly as a limited run car that could justify a higher price point
