Sure, and an AMG GT R will bury an M760i in the same categories for about the same money too. Heck, we could come up with plenty of others if we ignore everything but price and aesthetics like you did.
If a sports sedan (or coupe even) could legitimately attract a high performance SUV buyer, BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Porsche, etc. wouldn’t be pumping out high performance SUVs to begin with - they’d double down on their performance passenger cars instead. Instead they are doing the opposite because that’s the reality of the market.
BMW is going to introduce the X2 M35i later this year and they are absolutely going to position it as a performance SUV for the enthusiast. If they had an X2 M ready, then you better believe they’d bring that to market too.
