What about a 4-door super car from BMW that's mechanically nearly identical to the one i was talking about a second ago but that costs $25K more and has a smaller back seat?

The M8 makes sense to me. You buy it when you want an M5, but you only need 2-doors. The M5 makes sense to me. You buy it when you want an M8 but you need a real back seat.

If you need the rear doors, i'd assume you need to use the rear seat on a regular basis and would appreciate having usable space back there. If you don't need the rear seat on a regular basis, i'd assume you don't really need 4 doors either.

Plus...y'know. The money.
Agree completely. It doesn't make sense to pay that much more for what is essentially an M5.
