I like the interior, but the outside looks a lil too jagged for me, and those rims are kinda weird.

I'm more of an M3 person, which will in the future be the M4...

I think the interiors are starting to become a bit too "spacey" for me. Like, not roomy spacey, but Mars spacey...:chuckles:

Im not one for extremely refined interiors, simple and functional yet clean works well for me

But that is one bad-ass mofo

I think I read in Automotive News that BMW was going to keep the name M3 for that car. That is, I definitely read it somewhere; I think it was AN.

I really don't like what BMW has been doing with their cars in terms of looks lately. The interior is nice, the engine is nice, I'm sure the performance will be sick, but the exterior really doesn't do much/anything for me. I like the look of the old 5 series/M5 much much better.

That's weird, if all future 2 doors are going to be 4-series while 4 doors remain 3-series, then why would they name the coupe M3? I'm pretty sure Car and Driver has a spy shot labeled as the M4. I have the issue at home, I'll check tonight.

magazines are 3+months behind. benjamin is right. BMW dropped the 2/4 series from the naming scheme.
