M4GC will be very nice

If they make an M4GC, I will want one.

Great performance and looks, 4 doors, tighter and lighter package than M5 - plus a hatchback.

I need a bigger garage. And a bigger wallet.

Everything I've seen indicated says that they are not going to come out with an M4 Gran Coupe. Kind of makes sense to me as its placement in the market is kind of confusing. True there is an M6 Gran Coupe, but that was pretty much only made to compete with the CLS 63 and RS7. What would be the M4 Gran Coupe's true competitors? I honestly don't know. The CLA 45 AMG maybe, but not likely. BMW would have to come out with an M2 Gran Coupe to directly compete with the CLA 45 AMG. By the way, it's almost comical trying to get into the back seat of a Mercedes CLA, you literally have to duck your head to get in back there or else you will hit your head. Lol!

Anyways, I'm personally not a big fan of the hatchback on an ///M car. But that's just me. Lol!

But I have heard rumors of ///M Division coming out with an M3 GT. Now that would be ludicrous.

From the horse's mouth. There is a 4 series GC so I expect there will be an M version in the near future.

They won't make one. Price would be too close to the M3. It would literally be 3-4k more and I think it would kill M3 sales.

How is that diff from M5 vs M6GC? I don't know why they made the latter, but that they did indicates M4GC may actually come out, and take sales both from M3, and M5.

I really like the shape, and hatchbacks. If they can do it without the hump in the middle of the back seat -- with true 3 seats back there -- I'm a buyer (so to speak).
