The management at BMW needs to get their heads out of their asses and quit excluding their biggest market; The US buys more sports car then anyone else in the world.
The difference is that all the other brands also have an image being strong enough to sell these cars. Many here already said that they would prefer an GT3 for the same price, which is understandable based on the GT3's image. BMW had to realize that their brand isn't strong enough to sell a "souped up 3 series" for the same money. Hence, they won't even try.
