It's the fastest times yet because it's white. Everyone knows white cars are the fastest.

LOL - not sure where those pics came from, but the magazine test car was red.

Not bad... Although realistically I'd still rather drive a C5 Z06 for half the price...

Damn you Lou....//M power!!! Thats waaay to much green for me. I'll wait on the //M1. Last time I checked those numbers were .1 slower in the 60mph and quartermile than the new 436hp LS3 C6. Not bad considering the Vette weighs 400lbs less and has 20more horsepower. Lets not even talk about how much more torque the Chevy has. I'm in love with the C6 but I'm shocked at how close the M3 is with so much against it.

"For those who think the M3 is getting fat and happy with age, this version will reassure you that BMW hasn't forgotten what the M stands for."

Damn straight!!!

[B]"Not exactly a lightweight at an estimated 3650 lb., the M3 needs more than just a carbon-fiber roof panel to be race ready
