The coupe sells like crap compared to the vert and also depreciates faster, so BMW led with what the market prefers.

Funny thing is all the people that hate the rag top would probably be bitching about the looks of the hard top equipped car too. After all, that's what the M3 coupe owners seem to have done over time with the E93.
In a car as big as the Six series, a hardtop vert would weigh a ton, totally eat up all the storage space and probably look like it was designed by Rube Goldberg. Don't you guy understand BMW thinks this stuff through and picks the best option? The E64 was supposed to be a hardtop too until they understood the same downsides that apply to this car applied to the last version.

This car competes against the MB SL. I'd rather have the BMW. Yea, it's a blvd cruiser. Nothing wrong with that if it's what you're looking for.
