A first drive of the 1008 BMW M3 is available at http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...cleId=121566#3

The same people have tested the Audi RS4 too at
http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=115689

Somthing tells me that the M3 has not lived up to the hype...though i loved the 2003 M3, me hopes the RS4 can kick the new one's ****!!!!!

 

Could very well be. I saw that 08 M3 video and it sounded like there were a coupleof stale comments on it. I'm sure it will be a "bmw high end speed" and "audi low to mid range speed" type thing...aaaagain!

 

the new m3 is called the e92 m3. here are some pics and specs of the e92 m3 http://www.fast-autos.net/vehicles/BMW/2008/M3/
the us ver will be 414hp and 300 tq, and it only weights 3650lbs which is around 300lbs lighter than the rs4,and it features the dual
clutch tranny. the msrp is only 54k.for more info on the e92 check out http://www.m3post.com/forums/index.phpfor more info.

 

Looks kinda like the new S5 from the side!
