There is a glimmer of hope. If they retain the manual then there is full hope.

The reason is simple. They have a waaaaay bigger profit margin off a shared platform volume seller like a FWD 4-door 2er than they do a RWD 4-door 2er.
The coupe is not a volume seller per se; so they can afford a smaller margin but they can't do it on the sedan which will sell significantly more than the coupe.
Do I agree with their decision? NO. I don't even think there should be ANY FWD BMWs. Period. But that's how the business works...
