Johnny, I'd go to a different dealer if I were you. Your story is the first I've heard of a dealer not taking a deposit for the new M3. |

Sorry, but if you're getting 27-28 mpg with your X50 turbo, then you must be driving with a strong wind, down a hill and like grandpa! My 997 turbo never got close to that kind a mileage. |

It struck me today that the Z4M coupe starts at $50k (M3 start at only 58k?)
and M5 $82k M6 $99k $17k diff between M5 and M6 (99-82) An M3 starting at $66k would perfectly split the gap between the M and M5. At this price there would be perfect $16k gaps between all M models... M $50k M3 $66k M5 $82k M6 $99k shit i'm so poor. |

The new M3 will NOT perfectly split the M and the M5. The M3 will be much closer to the M than the M5 unless BMW unveil a COMPLETELY different car than the Concept M3 we've seen so far. I think to warrant a base price of 66K USD for an M3, BMW would have to have performance characteristics that are WAY out of range for their current line of cars. The 335i does 0-60 in 4.8 seconds and the M5/M6 does that run in 4.2. Who is rightly going to pay 66K base with NO options for an M car that does 0-60 in 4.5 seconds and goes around the Ring in over 8:10? If BMW does release this car at 66K, meaning reasonably optioned at 74K MINIMUM, I think they will miss about 70-80% of the target audience for the M3. People will buy a 911 that may be a fraction slower but turns heads the way NO BMW can.

I think the M3 will be 53K as the base price. Based on numerous sources including the Euro discount sales price (for US military, US spec car) at 50K.

A well optioned 911S for roughly $90k minus a $5K discount ($85) v. a $68-$70k M3. Figure roughly 8.53 power to weight for the P car and 8.33 for the M. I better get to my Porsche dealer! |

The new BMW M3 Coupé is to be launch in the UK on Saturday 8 September 2007.
Model Code and Pricing Model Code WD92 Description M3 Coupé Basic Price £42,680.85 VAT £7,399.15 Retail Price £49,680.00 OTR Price £50,625.00 Which is a 25% increase over the E46. How much was the E46? I would add 25% again to get an idea of cost. |
