will have a carbon fiber roof like the m6.
but the funny thing is that they are both cf reinforced plastic, not pure cf.

also;
6 speed manual or 7 speed smg
a huge hood bulge (at least for now)
should be heavier and the qouted 0-60 is 4.9, just like the last one, the fastest e46 ive seen was 4.6 so this one will more than likely not get below 4.5 :dunno:

sounds like the rumored 4l v8 w/ 414-420hp (295lbft tq :rofl: :thumbdown: ) is only gonna come into its own at higher speed.

it should handle beautifly though :dunno:

That's the one.

It doesn't have the visual punch of the E36 or E46, but I'm sure we'll all get used to it a few months after launch.
kind looks like the new civic from that angle.

I;ll give it to em, they can make attractive cars, bu't I don't think I could ever drive one....I have driven one briefly, and it felt cheap... should be a nice car.

I absolutely have no care for this car at all right now...but I'm sure it'll grow on me...eventually :hmm:
Anyone notice the Pilot Sport Cup tires on there? They're the same tires that Porsche fits on the GT3 RS. Those will never make it to production on that car :dunno:
I rather get the new Lexus IS-F. :clap:
I think it's gonna take me awhile to get used to the body style... I just dont like the ass on the coupes... :hmm:

To be honest, right about now the 335i is looking like a real sweet car in my eyes. Considering the price difference, the 335 is a better deal.

its not an m car, there is just somethings you just cant buy even if you buy all the m3 parts and do a full conversion
I know, but will you really take advantage of the M's specific features on the street?

Oh wait, look who I'm asking :rofl:
The M cars were never known for TQ. They just don't have the history. Keep in mind they come from an airplane engine background. They aren't used to digs. To step away from my 55K is hard because of that very thing.
