First drives and magazine reviews will be published in July.

Have you seen the article in this months CAR magazine, they go behind the scenes at M GmbH, have photographs of all the test mules in the workshops and interview Gerhard Richter. Well worth a read.

+1 on the scan request

...I would have had my May Automobile with M3 cover story posted in the photos section via a scan as well but traveling now and no scanner access. The cover title is,

"NEW M3
V-8, 414 HP,
FERARRI
FAST!"

Article is mostly what we know already and pics are have also been seen.

The press drives will take place in Jerez ,Spain in mid-July and I will be on hand to handle the marketing questions.

International show launch is still Frankfurt - The Cabrio is expected to debut in Los Angeles in December.

After which I go and create the M3 Cabrio media presentation with film shoots along Highway One - California , The scenic roads along Loch Fyne - Scotland , and photography at the America's Cup pavillion in Valencia, Spain .

I hope they bring the coupe along as well but doubt it. Not enough room to bring 2 M3s. Ugh.

ILM are still working on the visual effects if you think the first films are impressive with the digital transformation of the track and the bridge -"Athletic" is the "money shot"

is what the M3 is all about just remember that your speakers have to be at the highest level possible to inhale the experience .
