It may compete in price and market segment, but I will be very surprised if it is able to compete in performance and driving dynamics. Mercedes already tried this with their AMG GT car and it was decent but still no 911. I'm guessing the next gen 6 series will be more apt as an AMG GT competitor.

S=7 S Coupe=_____ E=5 C=3 CLA=2 ML=X GL=X8 (when they decide to make one) SL=_____ CLS=_____ AMG GT=______ |

right now the 4 series has a 2in shorter wheelbase than the 6er. If anything the z5 will maybe get a hardtop and be the next 6 series if they put a back seat in it

It means the price tag on the 8 will be more than a 6.

Just going to try to add my 2 cents: S Maybach = RR (Ghost?) CLS = ? (guessing 8) S = 7 CLE (only a matter of time) = 6 (now ?) E = 5 C Coupe (rename to CLC imminent?) = 4 C = 3 CLA = 2 A = 1 GLS = X7 (?) GLE Coupe = X6 GLE = X5 GLC Coupe = X4 GLC = X3 GLA Coupe (only a matter of time surely) = X2 (again, only a matter of time surely) GLA = X1 I'm sure I missed a few. EDIT: Forgot the most glaring hole AMG GT = ??? (i8 doesn't count, as nice as it is) |

I still think it's a mistake, I believe there's room for both the 6 series and 8 series. The 6 series should be cheaper than its predecessor, lighter and more sporty, to compete with the E class coupe, whilst the 8 series take on the S coupe

Agreed, I wouldn't mind a "5 series coupe", like with the 3 & 4.

Only line that resembles the GT is the rear fender.
