M is not just power, it's performance and agility too and I doubt this car can be a good representative of M-Car unless you just want to see the M badge on it and know you have +600 HP under hood ...
There is an M8 GC coming out just like there was an M6 GC. The M5 is a sedan and wears the ///M badge so BMW is no stranger to ///M Sedans that aren't small. Even the current ///M3 is quite large relatively speaking. If you've ever driven an M5, M3, M6 GC etc then you would know they handle very well for all being sedans. I've only drive then M3/5, never the 6, but BMW knows how to make SUV's feel like sedans and sedans feel like coupes.
I had own F13 M6, F82 M4 and now F80 M3. Also have driven F10 M5 and Im telling you even F13 M6 (Coupe) which is around 20 cm shorter than M8GC is not agile anywhere close to M3....
I never said it would be, after all this is a sedan. Proper suspension tuning can go a long way so let's see how it turns out. I'd love to see an Alpina version of the new 8 GC
