M6 CSL? Huh
Seriously, we have already devoted a long thread to it. Until we have seen spy shots or any concrete rumor the M6 CSL is pure fantasy, aaight? | | | | | Enthusiast

I agree with the M3 sedan coming out after the 3-er facelift. So the spyshots of the M3 sedan we've seen with the E92 front is a mule? | | | | | GCZ's High Court

Unless i see some prototype, for me there won't be a M6 CSL. So most probably it will be M3 Sedan.  | | | | | Devotee Moderator Emeritus

The question is, will the E90 M3 get its own unique front end in line with the current sedan differentiation or, in order to align its M image, will it get the E92's front end? If the latter is the case then there's no reason for BMW to wait for the E90 facelift.
And, how better to smack back at some delicious Japanese performance premiers at Tokyo than by releasing another M3 derivative with DCT technology in their backyard? | | | | | Contributor

M3 sedan will get M3 coupe fascia.
But the rear - incl tail lights - will remain sedan specific. And FL 3er sedan brings slightly different tail light shape / graphics.  | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to EnI For This Useful Post: | | | Me for President

We've seen spyshots of a red M3 CSL on N-ring. Maybe its a M3 CSL Concept? - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER | | | | | GCZ's High Court

"great news for the M-Community released on the first Oktober weekend"
- a M3 Convertible isnt great news, we already know what its going to look like (I still think its the convertible we'll see).
- Great news is a M3 CSL (but I think it comes summer 2008)
- M3 Sedan is great news (but just like with M5 Touring they will wait for the facelift)
so bet your money on the M3 Convertible. | | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
