Same here, I am ready for a smaller nimble sport car. If they will offer it with X drive (not Haldex crap) it will make it very desirable for a wider range of people.

So excited man! Although this puts me in a dilemma big time. I didn't think we'd see this car until Spring 2016.

Unless I sell both my M3's, I won't be able to do the mass E.D I don't think

You getting one right off the bat? This car is here definitely earlier than expected and I won't be ready for one during the first batches. At that point, I might as well wait until the 2017s probably

I was under the same impression. Did BMW back off as the m240i would have been way too close to the m2 powerwise?

One of my biggest complaints with my 235 is how soft it feels - if M3 underpinnings help alleviate that, I will be really interested. But I too am not the biggest N55 fan. Hope BMW can dial up some magic.

The 2017 will coincide with my 235 lease end - do you think they will do a competition pack ? Might be a good reason to wait.

Probably wouldn't wait opt for a Competition Pack should they do one I don't think. Like I said, if I'm going to miss the mass ED, I might as well wait one year so that everything is ironed out and I can get a better price for one too.

I'll mod it so that it's my own competition pack. I just want metallic paint, LED headlights maybe, and HK. The way the car handles, I'll do it my way

Let's assume the car costs 55k... for 62k, you get an M3 which overall will have far more standard features and a power plant on another level. The 1m was special in comparo to the older m3 because you received a turbo motor... here everything will be subpar.
