Don't forget this car also compete with skyline GTR

 

yuck. what is wrong with bmw design these days?

3,5,7-series, they all look retarded.

I prefer the last generation look (e46), & i'm a big fan of I6 engines. Nothing beats a smooth I6 engine... 60 more hp V8 won't make up for the smoothness of I6. Looks like performance I6 is just about dead... (except 330, 325... no more toyota I6 either).

 

i'll just stick to my e46 thank you.

 

I just can't see spending that kinda money for a "performance vehicle" knowing the Z06 is the same cost. The Z06 is an incredible bargain and I don't see anything offering the same performance in it's price range any time soon, the Viper is close, but on most days, I'd give my money to the Vette in beating the Viper in everything 'cept out right power and straight line speed. So the M3's got back seats, but I think anyone with $70k to spend on a sporty car can afford another decent four seater for the times when it's needed.

 

"The initial idea considered was a 4 door M3 saloon and a 2 door M4 coupe. But recently BMW has changed their minds and keep the legendary M3 coupe alive. Internal pressure from the BMW board was too great to kill it off. Therefore, the M3 coupe, 4dr M3 saloon and an M3 cabriolet in addition to an M4 2 door cabriolet will be developed. The M4 will be a coupe/cabriolet - 2 door coupe with folding hardtop)"



sweet...
