New BMW 6 Series May Include 4DR a la RX-8
The next generation BMW 6 Series may include a four door model along with the traditional coupe and convertible The four door model would incorporate suicide/freestyle doors a la the RX-8.
Here is an article on it and an artist's renderings of what it might look like.

The RX-8 continues to be a styling trendsetter.

I'd agree BMW's need to be about 15% less across the board. But then they don't seem to have any problems selling them. Depreciation on them makes the used market a good bet, just depends on the model (Damn M3's don't depreciate worth ****!) I'm toying with possibly getting a used Z4 as a alternate car and having the 8 as my daily driver. 03 3.0i's are around 22-26k. Thats a ways away and my mood shifts constantly so who knows....
So far I have liked all the BMW's I've driven and I've tried several. If they were cheaper I probably would have gotten one.
