Count me as one of the few who think the M coupe looks great! In fact I now have a picture of it for the background on my desktop.

Love the shape of the car. Much improved from the M Coupe of the Z3.

Car should be in showrooms in 3 weeks, I've been told.

I love it. for the price it's quite the bargain eh? Somehow a regular Z4 Coupe would seem inadequate next to the M Coupe. Just like how the old Z3 Coupes feels and look weak next to the M Coupe.
One of those silver/grey would be nice. Hmm.... house or car? It does have a generous trunk.  Smiley

That engine will get "old" real fast when the new M3 comes out.  A 400+ HP V8 (that mother is gonna fly) with a SMG 3 (one of the only paddle thingies I would consider) ...  now that's dream car material.  Grin

I disagree.  Nor am I a fan of the V8 in the new M3...  M3 was always a well balanced blend of class and handling.  The new V8 just pushes the horsepower war forward.  That, and the 3-series has always relied on that amazing straight six...  a 3-series without one just seems wrong.  I absolutely love the M Coupe Straight Six...

(We will not speak of the 318 Cheesy).
