I really hope thats not going to be the new M3. I mean thats terrible looking in my opinion. WOW. I cant believe how much different it is then our E46's. I wish they were going to keep the E46 body style. Much, much better looking.

How can you say it's terrible looking? You can even see it, it's covered with masking. At least wait until they show what it looks like before condemning it! I'm not thrilled about Bangle designs either, but let's hold of judgement until we have a real picture of it, not a masked-up test mule.

BTW those pics have been around for awhile, sad that Autoweek is posting them with a 5/24/05 date on them.

Can't really see the M3 when it's all covered up. That GT3 is a little over the top...who's designing these Geman cars these days and when will the joke be over?

looks preety bad! and I'm sure those cars are even going to be heavier!

Well its only my opinion from what I can see. Obviously I havent seen it in person yet, but what I can see from pictures I dont like it one bit compared to our E46 M3. Just because its all masked up doesnt mean we cant see the outline of what the car will look like. Just in my opinion it doesnt look like a step up from an E46.

There is to much body cladding on the car to see what it actually looks like.

It's not supposed to look like anything, it's a disguised test mule. How could a disguised test mule look like a step up from anything? (not counting the 7-series)

Repost....not a fair pic to judge from. That car is covered in so much cladding it probably weighs about 300lbs more than the real deal.

PLEASE STOP POSTING THIS PICTURE IT IS A RE-RE-RE-RE-RE POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :banghead:

Stop criticizing it!! it has more makeup than Paris Hilton... you can't see a thing below all that crap!

trust me it wont look like that... i dont know if its the masking but thats definatly not it :dance:

So the new 3s, 5s, and 7s look like Japanese cars and now the new M3 will look like an imitation Audi...

Great....

When did BMW get purchased by Ford?

wow, i think the new skyline, shelby, and rs 4 get my vote. the old school m3 is too classic now!!!

Wow, no offense man, but dont even compare american, or asian cars to european cars, especially bmws. american muscle is good, until u get to a curve in the road! haha. German Cars for life!!!
