Very nice vid. Thanks for the link.

But notice that he says the 3 door was made for people that don't really care about the space in the rear. (well of course) Aren't the target market for the coupe (allegedly) even less concerned about practicality? That is, will BMW really throw a major effort to make more legroom in the back, which would most likely require messing with "hard points" of the design? I doubt it. :iono:
