nope! :nono facelift applies to E46 3 series coupe and cabrio only!

i think the M3 is only getting the same rear LED lights, that's all!

I thought that I heard that the facelift applies to the M3 in '04. Maybe they decided to kick it back a year.

as far as i know, the M3 is not getting a facelift! same thing happened with the M Roadster, all Z3s got the newly designed rear except for the M roadster!

I don't know, I'm not really a fan of the facelift... so the LED tail lights alone would be very cool :)

I am pretty sure that the M3 is getting the lift. Why would BMW let it drive around with out of date headlights? Meanwhile less expensive cars are running the "newer" headlights.

M3 is not getting a face lift! besides the M3 was introduced a few years after the E46 3 series, it wouldnt make sense to face lift the M3 when it has only been introduced 3 years ago!

Like i said, the M roadster was left untouched while the regular Z3 got the new rear!
