Has the M Division and BMW lost their way?

Name the alternative, £50,000 when new, seat 4 in comfort, 420BHP, 2 door coupe from a quality marque that I should buy instead of the M3.

Buggered if I can think of one. Dont say 'used 911' . I dont buy used, I want new. No, it isnt an RS4, it has 4 doors, I dont want a saloon. No it isnt the RS5, it isnt out yet.

Name an alternative I can buy now that meets my criteria.

I have posted the exact same sentiment some time ago. I feel that with as narrow as my selection criteria are (very similar to yours) the ONLY choice is the E92 M3. Not a bad corner to be backed into at all, huh!?

Yes, and even when the M3 sedan comes out it will still be a better buy IMO than an RS4 because..............

When the M3 sedan goes on sale the current RS4 will no longer be in
production....

Course there is the C63 and IS-F but I've already commented on those elsewhere.........
