Expect a £140k price tag and depreciation like a stone.
As long as it doesn't depreciate like the Z8 .... which strikes me as being unlikely. I was absolutely floored by the pricing of the Z8.Wonder if BMW will let you spec it with the B&W camo colour scheme?
IMO it's very much aligned with the S63 coupe and will perform as such in value terms.
The CSL got close but the Z8 was only ever owned by people that didn't need to sell them. The turnover over years has been minuscule.
There's less than 100 in the uk and only 2/3 of those see the road.

I so hope BMW get their game back together....they were head and shoulders above Audi and Mercedes if you wanted a "drivers car" whether that was a Sport or an M. They're bang average now.
How the hell Audi has managed to sell something like the R8 successfully and BMW hasn't even tried to make a car like that is beyond me.

They should have kept the 6 name going, 6 coupe, cab & grancoupe, I see loads of them on the road in my area, they've basically rebadged a 6 series and will probably charge 120 k for a car that competes with a something that has no competitors?! (I don't think Bentley or Aston Martin are actual competitors, on paper they could be but to me they aren't)
What car have you got?
I've got an S class coupe
Nice!
What car have you got?
I've got a M8 bmw
Which ones that?
Oh it's the new one, 8 series.
See what I mean?

That's what marketing, the internet, YouTube, PH, car mags and advertising is for...
Under your premise, no manufacturer would ever launch a new model line as folk would be confused. AMG GT, which one is that.

That is true but my point is, bmw already have a great thing going with the coupe, cab and gran coupe, m6 coupe was perfectly fine, why would they go out of there way to make a new model that indirectly replaces the 6 series with a considerably higher price tag!

The AMG GT was different, that's a limited run model that replaced the SLS, there can't be a replacement SLS with the same name can there, that would take away the exclusivity wouldn't it!
