So I "get" it but I also actually don't get how an M3 cannibalizes M5 sales. Yes they're shaped similarly and carry 5 people but they seem like their target markets are very different. M5 older and generally for folks with families, M3 younger, single/no kids.
I get this argument when we talk about Porsche not wanting to cannibalize sales of their 911 with the 718 because you could cross shop the two. It just seems crazy to me that people might be cross shopping an M5 and M3. Could be totally missing something though.
