And the M3 is not in the same league as far as head-turning style as the 911.

I will be very disappointed if BMW offer what we've seen so far of the M3 at base prices of greater than 55K USD.
Dude, how should the M3 not keep up with the RS4? Same power aswell as at least 100kg less weight should be more than enough to outperform the RS4!


And you're right that an M3 is not in the same league as the 911 in terms of price and styling, but we're talking 'bout performance!
