Will you buy F3X M3?

Based upon everything currently known about the F3X M3, will you buy one?

I have owned E46 M3 (and non-M), now E92 M3 and based on what I know about the new model and BMWs in general, I will commit to owning an F3x at some point regardless of what I hear about it. I'll decide if it blows or not...

I don't have a link handy, but it is a near certainty it will be a turbo 6. Other than that, and speculative renderings, i have no information.

How much relevance does the above image have on the actual design intentions of the M division for the new M3?

It looks pretty good. I'm just wondering if it's complete bullshit pulled from someone's ass or actually from a relevant source.

Oh, and about buying the new M3, I doubt that a new M3 would ever disappoint the market, regardless of how many engine cylinders or what kind of forced induction it has.

Probably not much. Roundel reported rumor of a turbo V6 this month. They don't usually print WAGs.

I would consider it if it was ANY of the following:

Smaller (Or just not bigger)
Lighter (Or just not heavier)
Naturally Aspirated

Guess I will be keeping the E92 for a while.

Depends on price, I have a feeling the M3's MSRP will jump again to 62-64k, making it an OTD car around 75k-85k. I'd be more inclinded to jump into a porsche in that price range.

Also after the M3 it will be daddy time, so most likely my DD will be an M5 or X5

If they screwed up the front end and show up with that boy racer BS, then hell no.

That is hideous in almost every possible way.

I am hooked on the hi-revving engines.

I tested a Mustang GT which has similar engine stats (more torques), but like I said in another forum, it was like a teenage date when you revv'd it. It stopped when you were really getting into it.

That exact poll already exists. It had too many choices though. I like this one. It's almost more honest. Though we know little about the car, I feel 75% of people could still honestly answer.
