New E9x M3 Coupe & Sedan Photos

Went to the dealer yesterday to get a test drive & snap some shots of the Sedan and Coupe but I only accomplished the latter. My sales rep told me that no one is allowed a test drive as yet. In any case I took lots and lots of shots so I hope you like them.

Coupe is Melbourne Red/Bamboo Beige Extended/Carbon Leather

Sedan is Silverstone II/Fox Red/Carbon Leather.

My thoughts for the coupe is that Melbourne red looks a lot better in real than the pictures. The beige interior is terrible and just not my cup of tea but I'm sure someone else will like it. I wish the interior was black cause that to me would be the best combo for the Melbourne Red.
The cockpit is very roomy but the back has very little room. To me, standing at 6 feet the seat height is just fine. The interior has a really nice layout and I love the height of the dash and how roomy the cockpit is. The only down for me is that after looking at the coupe for more than 30 min, I realized that the craftsmanship is like a regular 3 series. Nothing great to talk about and honestly I can understand now why some have said its overpriced. However to put things in perspective there really is nothing else out there that has the same quality that the M3 has for less. In general I will be very pleased and excited to own mine.

The sedan surprised me. It looks really good! The front interior is same as the coupe but the back has a lot more room. Anyone thinking about the sedan will not be disappointed cause it is a looker. The 19" wheels really compliment this car so much and now there is no other option but the 19" in my opinion. The pictures below do not do justice to both cars. For those who haven't seen it in person as yet you need to do that.
