Yea agree. Too many niches that no one was asking for with the GTs, GCs, 8 series. I wish they had done an M3 or M5 wagon instead of forcing a 3GT or 5/6GT on us. Also for what it’s worth, the new 8 series is flopping big time. BMW won’t be building any 2021 model M8 coupe/verts for US, just GC. Apparently the “take a 5 series coupe, relabel it from 6 series to 8 series and charge $$$ extra” strategy wasn’t working for them. It’s not a bad looking car but just at least $20k overpriced in regular trim and even more so once you get to the M8 models.
