Here's a few spy pics of the upcoming M3 testing with CSL 19" wheels. I think it looks A LOT better with these wheels and gives me hope for my reservation.

Your thoughts?

the 325 TT might be more modable and potentially faster than the M3. Look out!

Camo appears to hide the power bulge and side gills. There is no spoiler. If those all come out ok, it will be a fine looking car.

That said, I suspect it may look a little too much like my M5.

I posted this before and no one commented. Now Shank alludes to it. If you could mod the **** out of the 'lesser' 3 series, that might be the way to go.

agreed that the 335 TT will be potentially faster. The only concern is at what price? Adding another 100-115 hp to get it upto M3 power and modding the suspension to handle like an M3 will cost close to or as much as buying an M3 in the first place (about $10k). I'm sticking with the M, but maybe I'll pickup the 335TT just to hold me over

!!

that's insane...I'm so nervous about the time it would be released!
But I think it would be similar to M5 and M6 style...that's not very original at all...
