Isn't it logical to believe the E92 M3 base price increase over the E46 (percentage), will be similar/close to the increase of the E60 M5 price over the E39? There IS a similar level of improvement between the two over their previous generations, no? (overall performance, motor, exterior features, suspension, wheels, interior pieces, computer tech (and the M5 GOT the hot new transmission at the time, the M3 isn't going to, initially)
Isn't it reasonable to think?
Original Retail Price (MSRP)
03' BMW M5 : $70,400
06' BMW M5 : $81,200
.... = 15.34% increase
06' BMW M3 : $48,900
08' BMW M3 :
$56,401 [estimate - ($48,900 x 1.1534)]
I'm on record to say base price will be less than $57,000.
