I did a search "M3 sedan" and nothing came up, so I though I'd give it a try.

I think its bloody sexy! May be I'm getting old, but there's something about a fast sedan. Enjoy!

M3 Sedan = Fail.

Sorry, but the M3 will always be a coupe only car in my book.

I respect that, I guess I just have a thing for sedan.

ehhh, im not diggin the fact that they keep makin the motor bigger.
if you want a fast ass sedan get the 335 xi, but as far as m3 yeah coupe, not sedan, or better yet buy a rs4. im just not too big on the whole euro craze, like gettin a car because of status, and leather seats.

its nice... I love BMWs.. i would probably sell my coupe any day for a clean e30 M3. But my favorite BMW this year is the 135i..

trust187 · 10-07-2007, 12:42 AM

Ive always loved BMW's M line, but yeah M3's should always be a coupe. I love everything else they've done with the car though.

im with you. 135i is the hotness. aftermarket for that car will be CRAZY. howcome im not seeing ITB's like the other pics of the coupe ive seen? perhaps they're hiding?

articdragon192 · 10-07-2007, 08:39 PM

The only //M sedan I would rock would be the V-8 M5.

kyoru · 10-07-2007, 09:01 PM

i really hate the tail lights of the new 3 series sedans, coupe is the hotness though..but damn the 135 will be a ROCKET i need to get it

IIIXziuR · 10-07-2007, 09:14 PM

Looks Boring.

s14xman · 10-07-2007, 09:58 PM

.

the new engine weighs less, and being a v8, placed the weight lower and farther back in the engine bay, closer to center, making the balance significantly better.

the itb's are inside a common plenum. thats normal for bmw's with itb's, since they usually have a mafs.

powersteeringless180sx · 10-07-2007, 11:52 PM

i'm sure it's fast but it looks sooo plain.

BustedS13 · 10-08-2007, 12:22 AM

i think the looks peaked with the e46 m3.... and now those are too old to be worth buying, because bmw's hold their value like milk left in the sun.

10-08-2007, 11:43 AM

I may be getting old, but there's something that SUX0RZ about having an engine bay with no fucking room in it.

I hate not being able to see the pavement under my engine.

yeah they ruined it

totally ruined for me now.

+ the V8 is barely as fast as the old I 6

ok...

ronmcdon · 10-08-2007, 05:33 PM

BMW is also coming with the M3 coupe right? If so, i don't see how this could be a bad thing. Its just another option. I would prefer a 4-door just for the added utility if nothing else. The E36 M3 also had a sedan version, in addition to the M3 coupe iirc.

i actually like the M3 sedan a lot. Seems like they reworked the front of the regular 3-sedan/e90 to look more like the coupe (e92?). Some ppl think the new design is too bland, while others think its too flashy, but i think its just right. aesthetically I prefer the sedan over the coupe as I like the boxier look of the sedan body.
i guess this may also appeal to former M5 owners who think the current model is too bulky and expensive.

Cool car no doubt, but the current 335, or even the 135 may be a better bargain.
