Default New M3 Spy Video February 5th
Still a test mule but, you can see the nice aggressive stance. Seems to have some amazing pull. The camera car was a E90 328. The driver said he did floor it in 4th gear, 130 mph.

Video didn't reveal much... a corvette or AMG coulda pulled just as hard or harder away from a 328i.

We know the M3 will be pretty frickin quick... i'm just wondering how handling is gonna be with the V8 in it. I wish BMW would sell a trimline of the M3 that goes back to the rawness of the E30 and E36.

My sentiments exactly - anything with 250+ RWHP car can do that - i mean the comparison car is a measily BMW 328..

The camera-car was an E46, not an E90. The side mirrors and dash instrument pod were unmistakable.

The Xi never comes with a real sport package, though. It sits up higher, weighs more, and has the softer suspension. Meh.
