Holy Shit!!! BMW officially releases the new 3 series coupe! Twin Turbo MoFos!!!
 

The all-new 3 Series Coupe is hitting the roads in September and when it does, be prepared for a re-sculpted look, a twin-turbo engine and, perhaps the biggest news of all, all-wheel drive.

Re-sculpted, inside and out.
It?s rare to find such a sporty machine that also carries its own when it comes to refinement. But with the 3 Series Coupe, absolutely nothing has been compromised.

There?s the aggressive, muscular hood. Flowing signature lines along the profile. Standard Xenon Adaptive Lights. And if you can draw yourself away from the exterior long enough, you?ll notice exquisite changes to the interior as well. New ambient interior lighting. New colors for the leather upholstery. Beautiful pearl gloss accents throughout. And a new comfort feature that provides easier access to the seatbelt.

Then there?s the power ? 300 horses worth of twin-turbo power.
Just like any other BMW, the all-new 3 Series Coupe is outfitted to provide an exhilarating drive. Under the hood of the 335i Coupe is an inline 6-cylinder engine with high precision injection and twin-turbo chargers, giving you 300 horses of heart-pounding power and class-leading 300 ft. lbs. of torque.

The 328i and 328xi Coupes are just as impressive, featuring a more powerful and fuel efficient, inline 6-cylinder engine with Valvetronic. This new engine produces 230 horsepower and 200 ft. lbs. of torque. But because of its inline orientation of cylinders there are fewer vibrations, which means a smoother ride for you.

It?s history in the making.
With the launch of the all-new 3 Series Coupe comes a very big first. It?s the first time we?re offering a coupe with xDrive, BMW?s intelligent all-wheel drive system.

When you?re on smooth, dry roads, xDrive gives you a sporty, rear-wheel drive feel. But as soon as you hit a snow-covered road, slippery conditions, or an uphill curve, it automatically sends more torque to whichever axle has more traction, resulting in optimal stability and performance.

Add to that the driving dynamics intrinsic to a 3 Series Coupe, and there?s no straightaway, no hill, no windy country road, you can?t conquer.

Looks nice... I'd hit it

Thinking about one for my next car

thats hot

Hmm... 300 horses... A 3 with balls (aside from the M)... Sounds good. :)

Shit, I wish I could afford it :(

Damn, that's a really nice looking car!

300 HP - seems a little under powered to me

I call bullshit.

BMW hasn't built a turbo since the damn 70's 2002ti.

Unless its a diesel...

Twin turbo's are fun in a straight line,but cornering with them is sketchy at best.More than once,I've had the turbo's hit boost a little soon or a little late in my 911TT and it's scary.With a front engined car that isn't balanced all that well I'd really need to have a lot of confidence in the awd.
I just got rid of an M3 and am not at all in the market now,but I wouldn't get one the first year out.I predict there are going to be some issues with it.

nice ride :)

Of course...I could be wrong.

U are damn right. holy shit. that is my dream ride

thats a fucking sweet car!

Yeah I saw that, and I stand corrected. But really since when is BMW building gas turbos again? That's what threw me.

Looks good. I wonder if the new 5 series will be out soon.

300HP doesn't seem like much for a twin turbo motor; there's probably plenty of room for mods on it though for anyone willing to fuck around with it...

The way BMW works their engines is kinda weird. The german models all have the same engines yet more power. So, you can safly assume that power is actually reduced in this car just like the others for the states.

Plus, the current model M3 is sporting 333hp and only around 260 torque. So if they made the 3 series any more powerful, it would make the M3 obsolete till the new one came out.

I think 300 hp and 300 torque is awesome for a 3 series. :2 cents:

Looks okay

....god.. you're killing me!! My baby in here!! :1orglaugh :1orglaugh
I'm a big fan of BMW!!

nice post..

Now I finally have something to upgrade my 2002 for!

Thats Fucking Hot

LOVE IT

God.. its really sick... and 300hp!

Holy damn! Its so much better looking that the new 3 series. Impressive. BMW doesnt make it easy to pick up a sports car. Now its M5 vs. M6 vs. 3 coupe vs. the new M3...

Very nice!!

I think it's because Benz decided to make a AMG supercharged version of all their cars and Suvs so BMW has to compete.

I think the dramatic boost in power on the 3 series is due to cars like the G35 coupe having so much power and costing less. They will knock em out the box with this.

Thats pretty sharp looking, must move to

300hp/300ftlb from a 3.5L TT motor??? Talk about erring on the side of caution...

I'm interested in trying out this xDrive though, I wonder if BMW can make AWD not suck...

fucking awesome!

its called a 335i but sports a 3.0L.

really cool series!

really cool BMW

hot hot car

nice ride :thumbsup

Sounds blisteringly fast , yeah man I want one too!!

great car but I don't really dig the rearend of it...plus I need a convertible for the summer :)

the topless version should be out a year after this one hits the streets. :upsidedow

nice not that amazing looking though imho... hope the conv looks a bit better that 645 conv looks crap
