What's gonna be missing??

im just wondering if BMW is gonna forget stuff from the M3. like the oil cooler on 335's, or like forgetting to put on sports package on 328's and then give them a gift card

i also wonder if motor is gonna blow like when e46 m3 came out... any thoughts/expectations?

There are always a few issues with first model years. As long as it's not MY engine blowing up, that's cool...

WOW that dont sound good. do you have a link to who had to get his engine replaced?

coz if something like this happened it's gonna take them 8 weeks to get the engine here to the US from Germany at the beginning. just like the fuel pump with 335's.

E46s did not blow when the came out. Some 2nd year cars did due to supplier spec issue. That can happen to any car line at any time.
