I am hoping that BMW makes an early jump to the next generation as has been speculated by various sources. A next gen M3 as a 2013 seems to make the most sense in terms of generating sales for BMW. Its obvious M3 sales are hurting, especially when they come at us with such desperate and pathetic attempts to generate interest in an old model. I just can't see BMW waiting until 2015 model year for the next M3, could be a compromise at 2014. I'm not banking on less fat and more focus, just wishful thinking that BMW will not waste this opportunity to start over and give their next two primary performance cars some real edginess. |

This is the kind of stuff that makes people wonder if BMW has lost their way. If they are going to have a special edition limited to only 30 it needs to be a real performance machine. This is basically a custom (and frankly unexciting) color bundled with some of their standard packages. I expect that with a limited number of 30 somebody will buy them with the hopes that the exclusivity will translate to dollars on resale value. Not sure that even that will pan out given that there seems to be little or no interest for this car by anyone on this forum.

Its not immediately obvious to me that M3 sales are hurting, at least not any moreso than auto sales in general. I guess I'd need to see some numbers to be convinced.
You're right though - there has been a fair amount of speculation as far as moving the next generation 3 series and M3 forward, but so far nothing to confirm it. At this pount it is looking less and less likely given all the other releases we know are coming next year (6 series, X1, 1M). Quote:

So I just saw this car last night at BMW NA's meeting. I have to say. The color is amazing, but as I told everyone, the interior is ugly as h*ll. It's something that I guess some people will love and some will hate but those pumpkin orange inserts are horrible. Not the extirior in that frozen grey looks amazing, mean all around, especially the rear.

I called the 1-800 number, and they said the first 30 reservations are taken, but they are still taking names in case one of the 30 back out. The first 30, once contacted by BMW, have 10 days to finalize the deal with their BMW center. If the deal falls through, BMW will go down the list and contact the next available person.
I would consider buying one, but I know I will get sh!t $ for my trade in. Plus, I love the Interlagos Blue.

Don't worry about not getting in line. It's just a bunch of gingerbread on a car you already own with a color you love already!
