Graphics are said to be different, but i have the feeling that the shape is slightly, just slightly different too...

This is just stupid, why the hell erasing the sedan's identity by past:copying the coupe's front ? At least they could have done this with the ugly butt but why the front ??

Can it have something to do with the V8 engine?

I really don't see how, the engine sure requires more air cooling but in that case you do the habitual stuff, redesigning the front bumper and sometimes the hood (the bulge), they could have done it with a different manner.

but sadly this seems the economically more viable manner, i.e. cheaper

The reason for the Coupe front on the sedan is because the M3 suspension is set up for a Coupe. evident when you compare the sedan to the Coupe and you can see it is much lower. leaving the regular E90 face creates space around the suspension which leads to air to cause greater road noise , The front end of the Coupe is more compact and accomodates the suspension with no gaps , Also it has something to do with a upcoming gearbox.

rearlights looks the same to me but the rear diffuser looks slightly different`?


and the wheels, they look different too?

rearlights are not the same, either. Look at the little white segment under the bigger white segment, that's new IMHO.

Pictures already leaking? Very nice, so I guess it will be unveild this month. Finally we'll get to know all about the new gearbox.

Unfortunately not: German M3 sedan pricelist leaked already some days ago, M-DCT isn't mentioned...
