MDrive
Quote:
"The MDrive option The MDrive menu known from the M5/M6 is now also available as an option (SA 2MD) in the M3. Starting from the iDrive main menu, the MDrive menu can be called up by pressing on the iDrive controller and selecting M settings. The iDrive controller can be used to configure the different MDrive settings ready to be called up. The overall setting is called up/activated by pressing on the M button on the steering wheel. Pressing the M button again or restarting the vehicle deactivates the settings. The settings can, of course, be retrieved again using the M button. The following is a list of menu items with selection options that are currently available in the MDrive menu: • M Engine Dynamics Control (Power) – "Unchanged" – "Normal" – "Sport" – "Sport Plus" • DSC – "Unchanged" – "OFF" – "ON" – "M Dynamic mode" • Servotronic – "Normal" – "Sport" • EDC-K (only if fitted) – "Unchanged" – "Comfort" – "Normal" – "Sport". By selecting "Unchanged", when theMbutton is pressed (i.e. the settings in the MDrive menu are called up), the current settings of this system are retained. Example: The driver has deactivated the Dynamic Stability Control function using the DSC button. MDrive setting: M Engine dynamics control "Sport Plus"; DSC "Unchanged"; Servotronic "Sport". The driver presses the M button on the steering wheel to call up the M settings. Only the "Sport Plus" and Servotronic "Sport" settings for M engine dynamics control are activated. DSC remains deactivated." --BMW Aftersales Training Manual

I expressed sentiment, not fact. Hence my usage of the word "glad".
Regardless, it is a rotten deal that avoiding the double hump means one cannot have the sport plus throttle setting. I don't see why that can't be accessed via the power button like the other two throttle settings. |

I was thinking it would be about 62K with Mdrive and iDrive standard like the M5, but now I am left clueless. I really hope that it would be 55-56k like you said. It makes sense too, coz they are not even offering leather as standard equipment.

I am relieved to see them making the U.S. M3 standard without I-drive and leather. This should keep the base price in the $50Ks. I hope it also comes standard with manual seats since power seats weigh a LOT more than manuals.
If no i-drive, no leather, w/ CF roof and no power seats, I think it might weigh closer to 3590 lbs. I took the power seats out of my E36 M3 and they weighed 50 lbs each!!

I doubt it. Like I said in one of my previous posts, my local dealer told me this info a few days ago. I was a little skeptical myself and didn't want to start a new thread on it without verifiable data.

2 questions:
1. Will the e90 M3 have an oil dipstick? Or will we have to put our faith in a sensor like the 335/328? 2. If you don't get i/m-drive, what settings will the steering, engine, suspension have? hopefully more toward the more extreme as opposed to middle of the road. |

+1 Lucid. And ditto that for MDM mode. Like I said a while back, hopefully there will be an aftermarket solution.

Less
The single actual measured weight data point I have is from the Italian magazine review and they found the car with all options (not all options you can order, just all of the options on that particular car) AND a full tank of fuel to be at 3538 lb (1605 kg). Why do you think you need a stripped car and less than a full tank to "get down to" 3600 lb?
