I guess they are still parked outside and not in the showroom yet.

I'm almost tempted to trade in the one I have now for one, but like most new car releases it is best to wait a year till they iron out all the bugs.

Rumor that Wagner in Shrewsbury has one. Going by in a couple hours to see if this is legit or not.

No they aren't :D. I was there today and sat in the blue-black E90 sedan :drool:. I talked to Brian and he said they just found out they were getting them, and that they aren't sold yet. My Dad just put the insurance back on the Dinan and we're going over there tomorrow, hopefully for a test drive of the coupe. I'll take pictures.

I had a customer that was there on Saturday before he came into to see me. Maybe he thought a 335i was an M3.

A couple weeks back, I saw a dark metallic gray one going the opposite way on 93... it was going southbound just north of Boston a couple weeks back. Mid-day, during the week. It was definitely an M3... had the power bulge hood, etc.

I've gotta get to a dealer to see one up close.

How much over sticker are they jacking these? I just happened to see somewhere out in Cali that they are jacking them to a 30K surcharge do to lack of product in US.

Guess I will swing down to W. Springfield and see if they have one yet.

Sticker is about 68k which is not bad compared to the E46's totally loaded price of 60k.

Hate being stuck with some options to purchase a certain item. Buddy got his E46 M for 47K optioned his way granted he picked it up at factory.

The last time I saw him he was cruising around in his dad's e39 M5 around Christmas time. I think.

I'm still in Vermont but I talked my buddy at work and he said there is a blue and black M3 at Tulley and he drove them a few times. I have a video on my phone he sent me and the thing sounds crazy! I'm gonna for a drive in one on Saturday I'll let ya know how it goes.

Couldn't have been him, they sold the M5 a long time ago. It had been in an accident previously (that John was unaware of when he bought it), and he couldn't get the paintwork to look right. That's what my dad said at least. As far as I know his dad is still car less. But supposedly he wants an E90 M3 sedan.

I know he was in with the M5 awhile ago.

YOU HAVEN'T JOINED YET?! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!

Seriously - The cost of the membership is half of what you pay for a tank of gas. Not to mention the fact that your dad can join and put you as an associate member.

So to answer your question - yes you do need to be a member to go. The event is no cost and is catered. So right off you see immediate return on your membership.

I snapped a few pics of one of the new M's and have a short video of the exhaust. The only problem is I don't have the means to upload them. If anyone has this ability and wouldn't mind posting them up, I can send the pics and vid via txt msg. PM me with phone #.

I stopped by and had a look. There was an M5 out front right next to an M3 Sedan. The M3
Coupe was inside the showroom. No price tags on the M3s. There was a 2007 CPO 535it that interested me as a potential replacement for my 323it, which led to a salesman telling me
that BMW NA was going to import the M5T!!

I sat in the coupe this morning and I think I might buy one next year if nothing else better comes out.

They wouldn't let me drive the new E92 M3, but this is because I almost traded my E46 m3 for a new 335i a couple weeks ago. Reason I didn't trade was I wanted to wait another year. Wish I didn't tell them this...

Wagner in Shrewsbury has coupe & sedan. Also have 135 in the showroom as well. Belt line is too high IMO on 1 series but still a pretty good looking little car. 2 Asian guys were just got from a test drive in the sedan with there dad & I hear them say "Not sure if I want the sedan or the coupe." Life is tough!!
