Can a M850i compete with a base R8?

Why did bmw go with a beefed up 6 series gt tourer and not a sports car? With the size and weight I don't think the M8 will pose much of a challenge for a top spec v10 R8.

I am not even comparing to similarly priced Porsche c4s which would probably be more fun as well.

Looks nice but I am not sure they will sell enough of these. It's neither a halo car nor a track machine.
