[maserati3200gt]

Has anyone on here placed an order for the New M3 ?
If so whats the waiting time and how long will it be before the convertible comes out ?

Cheers

Nah wish I did have Pics.
Buying this car is a bit speculative having not seen pics and driven it etc.. but after the experience of BMW and the current M3 the gamble hopefully wont be a bad one ! (fingers crossed)

All I've been told tolday is that it may be a Hardtop Convertible with the Roof Closing similar to the Merc SL etc..and the Engine is a V8.
Shape will be similar to the new 3 series twin turbo according to my dealer.
400 BHP is the figure thrown around at the moment .
This is all subject to confirmation though.
As a guideline the M6 convertible is a year ahead of its estimated delivery time (again according to my dealer ) so hopefully the m3 will follow this timespan.

I have a deposit down, but no idea of the build slot.... I do know I'm No. 7 on the list and they expect some drop outs, so hopefully will get one of the 1st woohoo

I had the E-46 and loved it, so expect even more from the new one. I lost out as I was not on the waiting list and paid a premium and then lost out big time when I sold it. Not doing that again, so got on the new waiting list well early...

I'm gonna go for black or the carbon black (bluey/black) with Red Leather interior. Looked amazing on my E-46 M3 and IMHO is stunning....

JK

Snap ! Same here - We have Red at the moment but Carbon Black is Awsome.
I think Carbon Black attracts a higher Price also at Resale time.
