I think it looks great! Really mean and aggressive. I definitely see it as an evolution of the original E30 M3 in a way. When those came out, they definitely looked more aggressive than the regular 3-series. This is exactly the same sort of thing. Much more aggressive than the current 3-series!

 

Nice Lexus IS300. Still not a fan.

 

All the BMW haters, get the **** outa here. The new M3 is beautiful!

 

Def. growing on me from this angle, although i'll say it again. Its too damn top heavy, needs to be lower in the roofline and wider!

 

A lot of people said that, including me, when the E46 came out. I somewhat agree, but think it will wear on me eventually.

 

eh...looks ok...not as visually stunning as the e46 m3.

 

Took the words out of my mouth.

 

I really like the new design, I was very sceptical about the new design direction but the more I see it from different angles the more convinced I am that this design hit the mark. I believe that in five years it will be seen as a classic.

 

The goofy side wiew mirrors and no sunroof!

 

The E46 M3 just overall has better proportions not to take away too much from the E92 M3.

 

Yuk. I don't like it. I had an Imola E46 M3 and IMO it looked better. Doesn't matter though. BMW could put a roundel on a pile of dog **** and people will line up to pay for it. Their marketing is brilliant. That's what "M" stands for right? Just not a huge fan of the new designs, but that's my opinion and I have friends that love them all. That's what makes the world go round...

 

It only looks good from that angle because it's under heavy braking (ie, the nose being down). Imagine how horrible it will look under heavy acceleration??

 

I like it,i've seen some reallly nice 335 and 335cc and was impressed, so the M3 looks like a much more Muscled version.
