Naw... they look too futuristic, the retro look will always be one of my favourites.

i do like good ol' american muscle, hell z06 and Ford GT is great too, but perfomance and fuel consumption wise they won't stand a chance against EU cars

I have to agree with this one.
I don't really like BMW's, but the M3 on that pic is sexy.
I hate you.

Its out in a few weeks in the UK dont know about USA (maybe at a later date?)
Trust me, you dont want one in Black!!! their was a black one on the transporter going to another dealership and it looked no where near as good as the red one. You have to remember, these come standard with a Carbon Fibre roof, if you get a black version the Carbon fibre roof wont stand out.
oh yea, I work at a BMW dealership, I sign for about £500,000 - £1,000,000+ worth of cars a week

Ive been out in a M6, M5, Old shape M5, M3, Z4 M Roadster, Z4 M Coupe, Z3 M coupe, X5 4.8, 335i Twin Turbo etc etc 
Yea, American Muscle cars look nice but your engines are too big and use too much fuel etc  . German cars are the way to go 
Specs of teh new M3 -
Engine size: 3999cc
Fuel consumption: 22.8 mpg
0-62mph: 4.8 seconds
Top Speed: Limited to 155mph
take the limiter off and I guess it will easilly hit 200mph..
Max, heres a website for you to drool over has Videos of the new M3 etc on plus check out the Hartge H50 (E46 M3 with the v8 M5 engine dropped in it!!!) - http://www.bmwheritage.com/index.php

My favorite is also the E46.. i mean, you can´t argue with this..

I have to agree, E46 M3 looks and sounds better then the new one. They have done the same with the New M3 that they did with the New 4.8 X5 (made it too quiet).. If you compair the E46 coupe with the E46 M3 you can see a big differnce in looks but compair the new shaped coupe with the new m3 and its not realy that different.
Get one of these in Mint condition and its worth a fortune -

CSi was a cool car when i got a chance to seat in it.. for its time it was miles ahead of anything...
anyway i think 335i kind of took the wind out of M3's wings, it looks close to the m3 and with close to 350HP its a great bang for the buck.

This is what we will show on Frankfurt Motor Show in 2 weeks
I worked on the Show Car "Concept X" presented at Tokyo MS 2005
Its not a Porsche maybe but she drives like one 
Lancer EVO X

CONCEPT X
I am sure she will be a Need for Speed classic in no time

We hope the new one will sort a hit a bigger crowd, personally I think its the nicest out so far. And its a sort a benchmark for all our new coming products.

Evo 1 to 6 were all rally-influenced, then from 7-10 they became more of a family-esque sportscar. Although i prefer the rally-style models, i still love the later Evo´s too. I also like the design of the X, but its really a far cry from what the Evo used to be, wich is a shame.
Now Cox, what did you worik with on the Evo X?
Watercooled 5950X | AORUS Master X570 | Asus RTX 3090 TUF Gaming OC | 64Gb RAM | 1Tb 970 Evo Plus + 2Tb 660p | etc etc

I was Project manager and responsible for the Interior Design. 3 Months of dust and mayhem down in Turin (Italy) We built most show cars from our studio there.
Don't touch much Exterior Design nowdays as I am Chief Interior Designer
