Saw new m3 yesterday

[TXDakarM3]

So I saw the e92 M yesterday at the mall. It looked . . . big. The styling was decent, just big.

[Bimmerista]

I don't think they're out yet. Did you get a pic?

[Garrett M]

... Ohhh kayyyy

[themadhatter]

spotting a new M3 is more likely to happen in NJ then in Texas. speaking of which...watch out for the engineer shooting around in an E60 Diesel....he's a prick behind the wheel.

go to cali, ive heard BMW has a secret facility there,and also seen a lot of spy vids form cali

[BEMveE39]

dont believe it, they arent out yet

[FifthStreetz]

Most sightings are in Cali or the west coast...i wish i can see one here in NJ..

[993 911]

I saw 3 in Munich and they're beasts

[Bruse Wayne]

there are plenty of M3 mules floating around....nice find.

[TXDakarM3]

I kid you not. It was a new m3 pulling into the mall near my house in Austin. It was a silverish light blue. e92 bodystyle, m3 badge, quad exhaust, vented hood and some sick aftermarket rims.

i like how they de-badge them, as if no one knows

[NickA325is]

I believe you saw an M3, but not with aftermarket wheels. BMW wouldn't put "after market wheels" on a test mule. Cool sighting though.

Thats just it, most people wouldn't know. Die-hard BMW fanatics like you'll find here don't comprise the majority of the population of the United states. I'd say 95% of people (Men) you showed that car w/ no badges or emblems wouldn't know what it was.

people prob. wouldnt even think that was a bmw just b.c. there arent any emblems on them lol

[BingM3]

I think they're 335's made to look into the new M3's to give people visuals at dealership and on the roads

I would believe it if they had pics of dash, engine, interior

that's a possibility.

I wish they would test drive them in Illinois as well.

[gmessori]

I see future BMW's here in So Cal all the time. I saw a M5 almost a year before it came out, it was debadged except for the side grills. You knew it was a M5 by the rear bumper. Tried to get the driver to roll down the window but he just waved me off.

c'mon i mean maybe some people wouldn't know the model(M3), but even people in Sudan know what two kidney grills is linked to...but i guess i would be surprised with results if US was polled on the make of car

you're right, they would know it's a BMW, but not an M3 maybe

Isn't delivery of the first M3's scheduled towards the end of the year? If so, demo cars should start arriving at dealers pretty soon.
