    Default New M3 Spy Shots (Steel Gray)

    Strangely (and it may be due to all the hype) I'm liking the new M3 more than the GT-R.. way better. We'll see, anyway here are the pictures

    Yeah bigger rear flares and some better looking wheels FTW.

    Maybe that is just a standard 3 chassis with the M drivetrain and bumpers

    I hope they have done something about the transmission because the M5 definitely has some issues. I'm seriously considering this new M3 but BMW reliability has my concern, they seem to get it right only after a couple of years.

    Well a lot of people were pissed that the 06 m5 wasn't available in a manual. So, I'm going to hope BMW learned its lesson and will offer a manual right off the bat.

    That would be nice to hear. Too bad it looks like his influence is still there. I miss when a BMW actually looked like a BMW and not like a Lexus.

    I dont get what the bangle haters are talking about personally. I liked the e38, e39, e46 designs a lot. With the e46 m3 being one of my favorite cars. But I certainly have no problem with the new e60, e90, and whatever the code for the 7 series is, I think theyre all great. Could use a little tweaking, but awesome overall. The new m3 and m5 are gorgeous imo.

    From a VERY reliable source: New M3 will have 426hp and will be more expensive than the E46 M3 but a little less than the RS4

    Thats interesting, I wonder if Audi would drop the price of the RS4 to compete, because from what I've read the m3 will have more power and be lighter.
