Even though the niche market for this car is probably the middle age wealthy single people, but they may want to take friends or family to a dinner or lunch.
Looking forwards to m8 GC!
Ya, this car weighs more than 1400 pounds more than my 911 Cab and is almost two feet longer. The back seats are equally unusable in both cars. I think it's crazy, but I have a good friend who has been driving M6 verts for years. He loves the big size and GT ride and he can fit a set of golf clubs in the trunk (I sure can't do that in my car). He's the market for this car. btw, he hates my Porsche. And as they say, that's why they sell both vanilla and chocolate ice cream.
