So let's call it 3.9 now.. All for $80,000 or so. Now it blows me away how the 640 GC will get away at this price point as many of you have mentioned. Such a shame because I think this car would be a bit hit if it was cheaper.
I love BMWs, always have since I could drive, since I turned 21 (32 now) I have owned 4 of them, along with the C63 and a few other cars, this car looks amazing and the new M5/6 engine is great, BUT BMW is going to lose massive market share soon because of pricing, Mercedes and Audi are coming out with cars that compete in materials and speed while costing much less.

Take the new Mercedes CLA, rumor is the AMG could have 370 horsepower, around the same torque and be AWD while weighing what a 1 series weighs! BMW will probably come out with a M135i for the same price but with 320 horsepower
