lol, that must be pretty "boring" for you dave

 

I went to the dealership today and saw a black one sitting right there really thinking of getting one......might go pick it up tomorrow.......need to sleep on it tonight.

 

Make sure you post plenty of pictures! I think new E92 looks great, and sounds awesome!

 

Definetly, I agree that the new M3 is beautiful, shame the price is so high!

 

the convertible i can see. but the sedan and coupe? i think they are priced very well already

 

I've gotten to drive a couple new m3's already and it's not all that hyped up to be imo. Esp. for the price tag it comes with. To me and quite a few others, my 335 with software was more appealing.

 

The new M3's are no joke. I'm thinking about getting either a M3 sedan, IS-F, or LS460. What do you guys think?

 

+1. I didn't want to get flamed since it's highly raved, and hyped up car.

Day to day driving, 335i offers just as much if not more, than M3. M3 motor is high rev and I feel like you have to rev it up to make the car become alive. I felt that 335i is easier to drive and live with as well.
Overall, I think 335i is much better buy than the M3. For Performance/Money, what M3 offers to you is pretty questionable esp at the price around 75k out the door.

 

I've actually heard this from a couple BMWheads lately. I'm kinda surprised, because I'm not that impressed with the 335 and would have trouble justifying one without going up to the M3. But with all this noise, it's hard not to give it credit.

 

stock one is ok. but got_trd is talking about 335 with chip. it's a completely different animal. my friend's 335 can outrun m3 already

 

agreed, especailly the E90 335i...so sexy.
but then again, BMW looks different in person and I have yet to see an E9x M3.

 

I might be the only one here but I don't think the new M3 looks good. To me it looks too long and skinny and not aggressive enough. I'm not talking about performance.... just looks.

 

I have yet to see the E92 M3 in the NYC area, and have not been to the dealer since November. I will see one tomorrow at the NYIA though If you guys want to drive one in simulation, the E92 is now available for download on the Xbox 360's Forza Motorsport 2 video game!

To my man Gferg.. Instead of European delivery, performance center delievery, BMW Center delivery, I can send you this car via Xboxlive delivery like the E46 M3

 

Just went and took another look today.......the M3 still looks very nice but!!!! There was a M5 and a M6 that just got there today and they both looks great... it make my GS350 looks pretty cheap(So sad So sad)....so I might need to rethink again and might want to go with a bigger car for the function concern....hmm.....maybe I should take a look at the E and SL AMGs.....lol

 

I think the 4 door has better proportions.
