New M3 Hotness

While in Jamaica this past week, I got to see, feel, touch, grope and downright molest a brand new M3.

It is one of a few available outside of Germany AFAIK and it is even better in person

It is Soooooooo much different thant the 335i. So stocky and wide...night and day difference.

I have a vid of the mean V8 idle and I'll upload when I get home/get time
Enjoy!

Great lookin car for sure, Im going to have to wait and see what vishnu does with the 135 when it gets here though. I think i'd prefer to be rolling around in a 135 that could eat up stock m3s just for the sleeper status.

I hear that. BMW has a hit with the *35's. I tell you what though...this thing looks mean and probably drives so much better than any *35's.

Mind you, this is not a bash agains the *35's...hell I'd LOVE a *35 for a DD

I believe the i135 comes or has the option to come with the M series suspension and bigger brakes than any of BMW's current offerings so it should offer a comparable if not superior driving experience.

the overall design doesn't flow from front back to back, the rear taillights look odd because of how it cuts off on the bottom fromon the trunk,
doesn't have the wide flared look like the e46 did, imo: if you can get 1, the E46 M3 V8 Hartge for the win (m5 engine in a m3 basically with humungo wheels and brakes)....

I'm not liking the looks of the new Bimmers either. The e46 just has those classic lines.

You guys know that rotors get that way after sitting there after not being driven and getting wet right?

This car is sitting waiting for a local auto show...it was probably brought from under the covers for a wash that day.

^I would rather have the rotors look like that than all clean if I was going to pick it up brand new. That way you know that it hasn't been beaten' on. Or atleast not lately.
