BMW's M division sales up more than 50%

The M3 is an awesome car (my favorite being the coupe). I would still love to see a U.S. breakdown of M3 sales compared to C63 AMG and IS-F sales.

001, weren't you supposed to get us M3 vs IS-F sales numbers earlier this week after that article that claimed the IS-F outsold the M3 sedan, but offered no data to back up the claims?

I think is very normal, How many cheap cars have the capability to match the speed of a Lambo for just a fraction of the price of the Lambo or even Ferrari....M division is able to build great engineering cars at reasonable price.

Fire sales maybe, but you still have to build the car for them to come. Lambo's are faster and now well balanced, but come on, not really a good comparison. The financing that has been available lately has only made up for the increase in the price of ownership since the E46.

It's good to see M car fans have their priorities straight in this economy. :)
