It was a beautiful car in its day, but it was very expensive and very heavy. This duty makes sense going to the 8 series.
I hope BMW takes the opportunity to do something bold and radically different again with the 6er, and yes, whilst the rumoured 911 competitor is probably pie-in-the-sky it doesn't hurt to dream big and aim high. Shedding 300 - 400 kg and looking for sports car dynamics would be a great start.

If it (the successor) is meant to play oppo to the S coupe, it's already there in anything but the name. The fit, finish, design, refinement, interior design and the driving dynamics of a 650i doesn't leave anything on the table compared to the current S coupe, IMHO.
