At $112k starting and a possible $120k-$130k well-optioned, there are way too many options at that range that I'll start to consider.
I wouldn't even consider any of the other options at this price range. I think 8 series is stunningly cheap for what it is. Cheaper than S class coupe, cheaper than any other car in its class, but it's better equipped, lighter and faster as well; and it probably drives better.
6 series was 5 series coupe, this is 7 series in coupe form. This is not 650i.
