Same reason people buy an A3/S3 or CLA/CLA35 instead of an M240i today - they are in the market for a small sedan, not a coupe. Yes, you obviously lose RWD and the six cylinder engine, but for most people shopping for a sedan, a coupe is not even on their radar. That's why sedans outsell coupes at roughly a 10:1 rate (of course SUVs/trucks now sell double the two together).
