New Spy Shots of V8 M3 - Autoweek
BMW’s M3, scheduled for launch next year, will feature V8 power for the first time, derived from the same powerplant propelling its road-rocket siblings, the M5 and M6. The 4.0-liter engine should deliver 415 hp via a seven-speed sequential manual gearbox or an optional six-speed manual.
In these photos our spy caught the M3 on a test drive near Munich, allowing us to reveal the car from every angle. Note the large air intakes at the front end, wider fenders and four exhaust pipes. BMW’s sunshine-loving buyers will have to wait an extra year for the convertible M3, along with a rumored four-door “bring the family” M3 sedan. http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dl.../60327014/1024 |

I would agree that based upon these pics, the new M3 exterior looks somewhat bland. I hope that for $60+ grand BMW offers $60+ grand worth of upgraded design over the current E90.

looks real and mean
Just got this forwarded from someone at BMW.
Is it a chop? looks really mean, although I can't believe wheels like that would be standard. Kevin |

It is an extensive PSHOP of an e90 sedan which was lowered and made into a 2 door then added on those wheels. The real car however did have that bumper on there (custom made)..
