It looks good.
Has anyone heard any details? Will it be an M3 model? Ziggy?

I wonder if the twin turbo model will give the M a run for its money :mad:

I thought the new M was the twin turbo. No? Twin turbo is the standard issue? I'm confused.
hard top cabrio----sweet!

Yeah, the 3 comes in a twin turbo model, I think its only 300 HP though... its only like 70+ over stock, probably lots of torque with in I6 with twin hairdryers. The M still has more hp than the TT 3.
Moded out, I bet that TT 3 series will be a MONSTER !!

BMW lists the 335i as producing 300 hp, but speculation is that they are under-representing its actual horsepower. Car & Driver timed it at 4.8 second, 0 - 60, and a number of chip-makers are claiming they can produce an additional 75hp out of this motor.
It's not an M-series and doesn't have the same aggressive suspension and brakes, but it does move.
