Are they going to make these?

I was just thinking about this today..Are they going to come out with an M7? They have an M or high-performance version of all the other models except the X3. If they did, what would they do to it? They've already got the 760... Also, are they coming out with a performance X3? What about a 660i? I know this is random, but I was just pondering it today.

I think a 660Ci will arrive. It's only logical. Mercedes has their CL-Class, so BMW needs to follow up.

I know, I know...some of you must be saying that the 6-Series competes with the CLK-Class. True, but the 6 is such a grand touring machine, that I think it competes more with the CL-Class. Plus we have the M6 to battle the CL63 AMG.

A V-12 model is only logical against the CL600.

Hell that 550i is faster than an Audi S4, and it's not even a speciality vehicle. I think it might even hurt the M5 sales.

I mean, the 550i will cost about $20K US less than an M5, yet it will only be a second slower. I think any sane person would pocket the $20K and pick the 550i over the M5.
