It really should've been a two seater.

We opted for the X6M.
You are absolutely right.
I drove the M8 Coupe Competition and the M850i GC back to back.
I remember commenting to the sales guy right after that the Coupe front seats were way more spacious -and that my knee rested against the side door panels in the GC- both when I sat in the driver and passenger seat--and I am not tall.
The reason I find these forums helpful is that when you put me in a fast noisy car I become less discerning and more like a kid in a candy store.
So your objective observations are valued.
One more point to the X.
Appreciate the advice.
