Will have to go to chiropracter for left leg pain from stepping on clutch too long sitting in traffic.

Did I miss something? What performance figures are you talking about?

And I read 4.6 secs. Let's wait for something official. I don't think there is any official number yet for anything, just the exterior basicly.

Re: Officiall: BMW M3 E92 Concept

I don't know, but I'd expect it to be the same as w/ the E39 M5 vs. E46 M3, the numbers were exactly the same. We'll see though...

That is so lame-of course you could. I live in LA and I love driving a manual tranny...

As for this car-the more extravagant design cues are slowly growing on me. I still cant get over that bulge.. I cant wait for it to come out!

Re: Officiall: BMW M3 E92 Concept

I dont care about 0-100km/h times, I rarely drive below 100km/h so its not intresting to me. Besides M3 is about the driving experience not so much about straightline performance, the M3 will be fast enough to beat most of the cars on the streets so thats not a problem.

Also I think M3 is getting DSG, not SMG.

I've been driving manuals cars for 30 years and I have no problem either in the city or on the freeway.
I think all depends on what you are used to or grown up with.
US is mainly a country for automatics so I understand Deutsch why he is not into manuals so much but its never too late to learn something new

Re: Officiall: BMW M3 E92 Concept

Manuals are easy to drive whether in traffic or not. I've driven in India and believe me it makes driving in LA rush-hour seem like cruising the highways. Ever since my m3 has been gone I miss driving manual so much.

Back on topic. I really really want to see under the hood of the M3 so bad! In a day or two I will be writing my take on the M3 design. I know that most of you know that I love it but I'm going to try and explain why.
