I mean, with so many good design points right now. They clearly blew the budget on the M8. I just don't get the "stretch out what we already have done" theory.... a coupe has to have the right proportions or it's a two door hearse.
This is what came out of the conversation of: "can't we make a car version of an X4 and just delete the back doors?"

They are stretching it because MB is stretching them. Everything BMW is doing is now a carbon copy of what MB is doing. It has been for the last 4-5 years.
BMW branding is dead.
