As usual - it's growing on me. Ilike 6. The front has a hint of s2000.

Nice pictures.

The car I drove was Interlagos Blue and it didn't disappoint. The car was so civilised yet so potent.

By the way - I meant to say they are great pics. My fav is 7. It's a very nice lighting. The CF roof looks interesting, not that nice just interesting and I like the yellow lines picked out with the blue.

That's a useful illustrative photo! If one had budgeted for an E92 on the basis that it would be the same % more expensive than an E46 than an E46 was over an E36, that's about how much E92 you'd actually be able to buy! hehe

I agree that it's too expensive... but if I had money to burn and I could spec one in pearl white... paperbag

Great photos Steve, Interlagos was my preferred choice of colour which I really liked on my Z4MC. Picture 6 reminds me of my favourite from the launch, which is probably the best view of an E92 M3 (lovely).

Yes, and found it a bit boring to be honest.

Too expensive as well.

Half the price of an Aston but not half the car, shirley?

Boring?.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JSrm83uPKo

Funnily enough I drove the car in the pics a little today. The roads were very slippy in places. Boring, it most certainly was not yikesredfaceversteersmiley:

admittedly I did have the DSC off

Agreed

Having owned an M3 before the new one is fantastic. If I had the cash available now to buy (and run) one, I would. It's such a wolf in sheeps clothing, so docile, 30MPH in 6th gear, then when the rev counter swings around to 8500 RPM it's awesome. Money is the only thing stopping me.

Didnt say that it was half the car, just that I didn't think it was particularly thrilling to drive.

I had an E46 M3 a few years ago which I preferred. The looks of the new one don't really do it any favours either. It's not different enough from a sport-spec coupe to stand out enough.

I was referring to your "too expensive" comment. You have an Aston, costing twice as much - if it is not twice the car how did you justify the expense? I tend to agree with how you find the looks, it does seem to be missing something.

Those wheels look like photoshop specials.
