This makes sense to me. The coupe is way too big to be a coupe IMO. I even felt this way about the E92 with its boat-sized door. The GC should be nice. Now if only they didn't through 90% of BMWs design language/heritage out the window.

Someone hasn't been drinking BMW marketing koolaid. It's obvious! The M3 is a sedan, and the M4GC is a sedan with a slightly sloped roof therefore coupe. Duh. Didn't you know literally anything can be a coupe these days?

Or at least decrease the amount of Audi DNA in it.

To flip it around, having to engineer another M-model for the LWB with all the differences that this brings might be a big trade-off, so no wonder there hasn't been a M4GC mule spotted so far. But if they could pull it off without too much additional development costs, I think it would pay off for BMW, as the F36 had a pretty high take rate (again, that might not transfer to the M models, but why leave that on the table if it's a low-hanging fruit?).

and then in a couple years they rebadge it the 6GC because the M2 gets a gran coupe version as well and keeps growing in size and price to inch too close to the m3/4 so they rebadge that as well and cancel the m2 moniker and the cycle happens again.

I can see an opening for M4 Gran Coupe but I do not believe they are committed to anything yet for inclusion.
However with things as the are. The Performance i4 could feature an M badge, allowing the first electric M model as well as the first M variant of the 4er Gran Coupe.

I am extremely hopeful. I just don't understand how BMWi can be so ridiculously slow to complete in the EV segment.
