Furthermore, the New Coupe based on 7 series platform (BMW 8 Series) is planning to build the M version for them!!

That Autocar article is nearly the same story from AutoExpress. Either it's true or they're going by the same source. I hope they do a dedicated sportscar. The only one I see fitting that is the Z5. Unless they make the M6 more sport oriented or the M8 is not an S Class coupe competitor.
