Long hailed as the top performance car, pound for pound, and yes dollar for dollar, the M3 fights back the only way Bavarian would to let all would be bystanders know who the reigning champ has been and will be. So here are the specs...compliments of MSN Autos:
For the first time in its 15-year history the M3 will get V8 power. Under the bulging hood will lurk a 4.0-liter V8 engine producing 420 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, teamed with a 6-speed manual transmission rather than the controversial sequential manual gearbox (SMG). BMW claims 0-62 mph in 4.8 seconds with a governed top speed of 155 mph. The bold fender flares, air intakes, side sills and discreet rear spoiler will help differentiate the M3 from the standard 3-Series. The M3 will also be the first in the segment with a carbon fiber reinforced roof for greater rigidity and a lower center of gravity.
Basically it looks very much like a cross between the new 3 with the stance of the 6 series. Now let's take it for a test drive!
