when does new F30 F32 3-series arrive?
I would have predicted 2011 (around June) since the e90 came out in 2006. Refereshed in 2009. Just curious. Had ruled out a 335i based on the inkling the car would be outdated next June.. But is that the case?

Myabe its different than the 5. When the 5 was refreshed in 2008. there was an 09, short 10 and then all new 11.. if thats the case with the 3... an LCI 09, 10, 11, all new 12 probably in 2011? Jsut going by the history of the company, it makes a little sense? |

Anyone who knows for sure won't tell publicly, but late 2011 and spring 2012 are the two rumors you see most often.

It is still leading the class (although audi is catching up), they also have a whole bunch of new models for 2012 (X1, M5), furthermore they have recently facelifted E92/E93 and offered BMW connected for E9x models. I don't think a new F30 will be offered in 2011 at least in US, early 2012 is more likely. This maintains the 7-yr life cycle for 3-series.

the wait is terrible, let alone the next M3 not having a NA motor (and without 8 cylinders), but im sure it will all be worth it in the end

Agree, and this would be consistent with past BMW seven year cycles where typically the new models would be released in early spring in Europe and early summer in USA (e.g. March/April 2012 and June 2012 for 2013 models). There have been strong rumors that BMW is planning on shortening their seven year cycle to six or maybe even five years, but if that happens, it won't be until after F30 launch.

now i can save up and get my 2012 M3, might be the last year of NA engine. i would rather have a V8 for that engine growl. One complaint about the new Audi S4 is that it lost its growl, although performance numbers are similar between the NA V8 and SC V6. i expect M3 to compare that scenario
