Agreed, and it most likely won't be (similar engine, potentially no CF roof, limited color choices like the 1M) 435i vs M4. However, when it comes to options, BMW, as well as pretty much every other German mfg will make you pay for them.
I've always said that the car should start in the low 50s, which I think is perfectly reasonable. But I have no doubt that by the time you add M-DCT, Nav, Cold weather pack, HK, potentially LED, lane departure, Premium Pack, metallic paint... you will be well over $10k worth of options.
What KillRamos and I are saying, don't expect to see a fully loaded car in the 50s (key word fully loaded). In terms of options, I think you can pretty easily compare between all the models and deduce what the car will cost in the end.
