$70K...for a basic 4 series? WTF is going on here? Are there actual buyers for this? Does this mean the M4 is going to be roughly $80K base? That is a really high price point where I simply don't think there's a market for. Or at least not for a 4 series.

Seriously. I'm going to get a car with a normal size grill. Like a Lexus or an Audi. Oh, wait.. |

I tried. I really tried. I will say, the 18 option on the M440i is much nicer than the 18s on the M340i. I still love my 792Ms though

really a shame . the f8x was so good looking. I like the m340i. They didn't need to do this.
Gross. the new Audi TLX type S looks good. |

I'm part of the (very) small minority that doesn't detest the grille or the rest of the styling for that matter. However, the M440 I configured is priced astronomically high at close to $70K! In that range a person has a plethora of different options for a sports coupe. (Including the V8-powered C63!)
I swear BMW builds these cars strictly to lease with their hyper-inflated residual values creating unbeatably low monthly rates. Or, as is the case with the 8-Series, they are forced to knock $15-$20K off MSRP to get a sale. Why don't they just do that in the first place and price it respectfully at sub $60K loaded?? But then one remembers that a sucker is born every minute and PLENTY of early adopters will be buying these at close to full MSRP.

Pricing is insanely high. But then again it doesn’t matter ‘cause I won’t be buying this pos Asian inspired design. FUBAR. Every day when I see the yoga soccer moms around here drive past in a new G05 or G07 I just can’t shake the image of an ugly ass gopher face staring at me. They can keep their buck toothed “masterpieces”.
I feel much better now! Thanks for the free therapy. |

I don't understand why people think this is priced high. Were people expecting it to be priced lower than the 3 series? A loaded 3 series is $69-$70k (my own 3 series was $69k), so why is a $70k 4 series so shocking?

This is not an equivalent comparison. I took your build code, and then applied the equivalent build to the 4 series, and the total comes out to $68,875. So $3,825 more, which is a perfectly reasonable premium for a coupe.
