Agree. The term "flogging a dead horse" comes to mind here. Please stop, BMW.

Also, "The hot M4 GTS..." is going to be an extreme niche-within-a-niche car.
Yes, the Monterey crowd are enthusiasts (with money) but an M4 GTS doesn't need hype.
It'll be extremely low-volume, very expensive, and will sell out instantly anyway.
Probably with only a minor effect on BMW M GmbH's bottom line.

Why not tease the M2 the way they teased the M4 in 2013?
Roll out an early production model with a slightly non-stock shade of paint.
Start the hype and set the stage for the official announcement in Frankfurt in September.
