M3...Here I come

KKanabar · 05-01-2006, 06:00 PM

(Apologises to anyone whose already seen this on e90post. )

Finally took the plunge and placed a deposit on a E90 M3 (Saloon) at my local dealership on Friday.

They havent heard anything about the 4-door M3 from the factory but were happy to take my deposit. They were saying that it would make sense for BMW to launch a 4 door M3 to compete with the RS4.

Oh well......cant wait until offical pics and specs start becoming available. If I get any further news from my dealer then I'll let u guys know.

BMW rocks

My dealer in London (Sytner) is willing to take £1000 off me for M3 deposit - again had no idea re Saloon...does anyone know for certain their will be a M3 Sedan???

I've been in touch with BMW UK regarding this matter. Officially there is no indication on a M3 saloon. The guy I spoke to did hint that it should come out. BMW needs something to compete against the RS4 and C55, which are both 4 door sport saloons.

If you've got £1000 to spare then I'd suggest doing it - I did! The deposit should be refundable so you really dont have anything to loose.

Look at it this way - the E90 has been very popular in the UK. I've seen loads of them around. Now imagine one which has been given the M treatment!

The only downside is the wait........you'll be looking at deliveries in late 2007 / early 2008. Again these are unconfirmed.

I asked the dealer and confirmed BMW has no intention of launching the M3 saloon, the E36 M3 saloon didnt do well, but then again they may change their decision after seeing all your orders ... you can make it happen ...

The M3 saloon is a definite- losts of spy pics of the actual model plus I have seen one in person testing in California- Quad exhaust, hood bulge and all!

Expect it about 6 mos. after the coupe.... For spy pics of the sedan go to autospies.com or germancarfans.com.

It will be HOT! Kinda like a mini-version of the E39 M5 but faster...:rocks:

Yep. That's my take. That's why I put a deposit on one a year ago. Patience is a virtue.
