BMW M3 e92

Not excited.

I agree with Captain Slow here... It looks even better today than it did yesterday

And I really like this gunmetal grey colour that BMW uses on all of its M-cars. In my opinion it's definately the best colour for this car. Any thoughts about this colour being available for customer cars too?

Looks gorgeous :shock:

It's just been a day, but the car's already a cover star:

Its interesting that you show this comparison, because I feel equally the same about both cars…

…and I really dislike this Lexus

And here you can find the whole BMW press conference (M3 included).. V8 at its best!!

Having seen the interior pics, I have to say they look downright horrible. I really hope it won't look like that in the finished product.

I don't know if the camera was overexposed or what, but the slab of CF around the shifter with the different coloured 'hard' looking plastics and totally dull contours and sh1tty basic looking stereo makes it seem like it was built from the parts bin from 20 years ago.

It's like "My first BMW" or something with those huge dull looking plastic bits.

I really hope it looks better then that when I see it tomorrow.

As I said in the other topic, I wasn't expecting it this, but I really like it.

It's somehow weird that they've used the old M3 CSL wheels in a completely new model. The wheels are great but since it's a new car BMW should have done new wheels. I read somewhere that the production model might not have these wheels, since this car has semi-slick tyres :roll:

Anyway, the only thing I really don't like is the side mirrors. I might get used but now, I think they're ugly.

[SPEEDKILLAR]

Don't like the sound that much(for now), like a series of farting

[chest3r]

^^ Yeah it's quite different from the awesome old metallic M3 CSL sound. The engine is a V8 now, so the sound had to be different. It's not much different from an M5. But I wich it was more like a 430 V8 :roll:

the interior of the Concept car will be better on the final product. You wont see the final version tomorrow so your opinion wont change tomorrow.

BTW this car on the show is hybrid between the upcoming M3 and M3 CSL.

the car looks awesome..aggressive as every ///M. Its impressive..every time I see an M model flying nearby my heart just starts beating faster and faster and then I start thinking holycrap..BMW´s are way better in flesh than in pictures.Anyways, i love this car..exept for the sound..fews strange.

This CF interior trim sux.really.it looks REALLY bad..in flesh or in the pics..really, really bad..but nothing that a black piano wood cant do to fix completely the car interior.

Ah I see, so things like the CF Roof will probably be on the CSL like the E46 instead of the regular M3.

I liked the old CSL sound better, more music to my ears..
