I had an M Coupe as a company car for a year mate.
Well, it was in the office car pool and was on the board so it was mine as far as I'm concerned
What a fun little jigger it was. Insanely easy to drive out of control and just a little beast 450HP+ in that little thing? Heh Heh. I drove it a fair bit. A lot of the others didn't like it because BMW made a fatal error with the M Coupe, you can't fit your golf clubs in the damn thing, anywhere in the damn thing!
A better car than the M Roadster tho IMHO. The bit of extra weight over the rear did it good, it was an easier car to drive at the limit as well as just hooning around in. The Roadster is a very neutral handling car where as the Coupe is happy to hang the tail out and go. Try that in the roadster and if the ASC is off it's a real handfull. A great little city car with the ability to be a weekender for 2 if you pack light. A nice allrounder with great handling, mountains of both power and torque in a RWD package.

danish tax is like this.
you buy a car from some factory. the car would cost....let's say 100.000 $ then tax adds an additional 180% tax for registrating the car in denmark.....wooptidoo, now this car will cost poor trk 280.000 $ or at least someone else who has 280.000 $
no sence in dreaming bout cars if you live in dk. but if should be realistic then I would take this one

yep buying car in DK is not fun at all, specially not when looking 20 km to the east to see that they have them at a 1/3 of the danish price ;-)

Well I will make one, mainly because I am a HUGE fan of diecast and model cars, but I dont think it will be that popular.
