That wasn't clear because it doesn't stand up to reason. These aren't badge engineered vehicles - they are merely platform mates. You can't just swap a grill and badges and make the Supra a Z4. So, if that's your plan, then this isn't true:

Furthermore, that still doesn't support the idea of making the M a coupe only. The numbers are the numbers. If they are taking the time to do an M, there's no reason to cut the roadster out of it.

I'd love to see BMW build a Z4 coupe and then do an M for both. If only the market were still there to support all of this. Of course, like most people with a family, I can't really complain because I can't justify a two-seater anyway.
