I'm still looking for final E46 non-M coupe/sedan numbers, but those figures are staggering in favor of coupes in general. I remember seeing the E46 numbers a long time ago and the numbers favored the coupes by a significant margin.
BMW has sold a total of 16,057 F80 M3's in the U.S. among the variants (..launch, LCI, ZCP, CS, etc.). I'm fairly certain that the coupe will nearly double that number.

Anecdotally my E90 M3 was definitely a more rare bird than the E92 M3s around here. With the F80 M3 it feels more equal vs the M4 maybe with a slight nod to the M3.
Total sales numbers are as mkoesel point out not a good measure on popularity unless given for years when both models were on sale.
And then you have the matter of need vs. looks scewing the numbers as in my case. I prefer the look of the M4 but needed 4 doors.
