If BMW has done their homework (which I am sure they have) this M3 is going to lay waste to most of the competition in its bracket.

Wow this vehicle may outperform most Porsches - while offering more space and comfort - at a fraction of the price.

Well the RS4 has the advantage of 4 doors, which means anyone looking for a fast family car will probably go for that. BMW's sedan M3 won't come out till after the coupe so it'll be interesting to see what Audi does to compete with it.

No, I love the M3, always have. Just doesn't fit my needs as well as the S4.

we don't have to have flame wars on every post
the M3 will be cool but they are takeing way to long to come out with this car. the RS4 will almost be out of production before this car comes out. The new body A4/ S4 will be out in a year and the A5 will be more of i direct competitor with the S5

Should be hot

Homer-

You think the M3 is coming out too slowly??? Are you joking? It's always AUDI that takes like three years into a car's model cycle, and finally, randomly, an RS car comes out! BMW gets their M cars in within a year (well, two or three for the M6, but that's different because it was a new model).

It's nice that the coupe doesn't have the "clenched butt-cheeks" look of the sedan. The backtracking on Bangle's design continues.

exactly, Audi fans will give credit to where it's due. No doubt the new M3 will be amazing. IMO I'll still take the RS4 anyday over an M3. But the M3 is still going to be a great car.

O, and Audi's answer to the coupe M3 will be the RS5 Coupe. I can't wait for the 4 door M3 to come out and have that get compared against the RS4. That's how it should be, 4 door against 4 door, and 2 door against 2 door.

Hmm for anybody to think that the E92 M3 will not obliterate the Rs4 you are a joke. The car will easily see 420HP and weigh in at under 3575. Lower and more centered, center of gravity. I love the RS4 but the M3 will trounce it all the way around the Nordschliefe and the dragstrip..

All these speculation are directly from me and the folks at www.m3post.com -The dedicated E92 M3 source.

bmw does not care about a glorified vw.. you are right.. the bmw is in adifferent league when it comes to layout, balance, weight savings, steering response etc. the audi is a FWD platform, modified nose heavy slob. only foolish people who get marketed the "quattro" nonsense woudl ever buy this.. Are you morons aware that the only reason its frickin "quattro' is becasue they cannot make a rwd platform? they have to give this away for free. For any and all BMW owners current or past, this is the biggest laugh we get.. keep trying though.. amusing.

AmazingBimmer is actually saying that the Audi R10 will laugh all over the BMW M5 and BMW M6 in both the straights and at the Nurburgring.

It's people like you that prevent this site and its discussions from being civilized. That's great you prefer BMW and it's great that you're so excited you've wet your pants over this car and how you think it will outperform everything including your mom's Chevy celebrity.

Seriously, you make other BMW fans look bad by posting this crap and opening your mouth anytime you mention BMW.

I'm a BMW fan, but there are several Audi cars that I really like. It's not 100 percent about brand loyalty. I don't know about you guys, but I don't get paid to post a bunch of nonsense about which brand is better nor do I get paid for driving the cars I do. It's about what model fits your budget and best meets your needs.

The M3, coupe and sedan, will be great, and I can't wait to see them out, but can we keep the flame wars to a minimum, this thread has actually been enjoyable to read until AmazingBimmer's comment.

A six speed trany as an option? That's so gay!! I thought real cars such as the M3 will have an automatic trany as an option, but it's the other way around. That's SO STUPID
