What US Magazines will have reviews?

A lot of what I've seen as far as reviews go are European magazines that my tiny little town won't have a chance at seeing. Did Road & Track, Automobile, or any other big American magazines get a chance at the M3?

US journalists will undoubtedly have their turns somewhat later, given the earlier delivery elsewhere in the world. Hard to say if US specs have been totally finalized, either.

What I meant is what base configuration options will include (leather, Nav, etc.). Typically, BMW will supply cars that represent the area they are being marketed to.

It would be great if US spec'd M3s came with Navigation as standard like the UK spec, leather should be standard for US right?

Leather was not standard on the E46, though you didn't see many without it. Probably good to have cloth at least as an option for hard core track guys or those PETA members.
