Regardless, you got the broad strokes right, going to be a fine car for that price bracket.  |

The 4 door 3 series IS out.

The coupe and convertible 3-series will be released in 2006. Just like clockwork, its 3 series tradition.

Your right, I fucked up. I just asumed itll be the same engine since its a V8 and its pushing around the same HP.

As i said, its the only pic i could find. I wish you're wrong about the photoshop cus this looks fuckin sick. Either way, Im sure Beemers not gonna disappoint us with ANY car from the M lineup, especially the M3.
