E90 M3 sedan spypics
The powerful M-version of BMWs 3-series is scheduled for launch next year only. The 3-series M will be available as coupe, convertible and four door. For the first time power will come from a V8 power plant, derived from the M5 and M6. It is a 4.0 litre engine delivering 415 HP, transmission is a seven speed SMG gearbox. A traditional six-speed manual transmission will be offered as an option.
The photos are showing a prototype of the sedan in current cold weather testing. It has still some disguise at front and rear end, the rear skirt in particular hiding the four exhaust pipes. |

The headlights seem to have the same shape as in the current E90 sedan. Only the kidneys are little different from those we know.
The car on the pics is a mule so we shouldn't expect that the M3 sedan will look the same. The M3 is already a legend but I'd rather see the pics of the new Alpina B3. |

I wonder if all the sedans after MY07 (or whatever) will have this new grill like the coupe and now the M3. I definately like it better.
