A lot like the M5 'concept'. Is the E90 code name confirmed? Didnt BMW say there wouldnt be a 4 door M3 though? ------------- MattB E36 328i Sport in silver

BMW are going down the road of having saloons/tourings on odd numbers and coupes/roadsters/etc. on even numbers. However, most people thought that the E46 M3 was the last M3 to be made. But it now appears thet there will be an E90 4 door M3. ------------- Current: 2009 E60 520d "Sport" tractor Previous: 1989 E30 320i SE 1997 E39 523i 2003 E39 525i Sport Individual |

This is what i have read, but the last article (i think) gave the impression that the numbering scheme would only apply to the M-cars. Would seem an odd thing to do from a marketing point of view though. Having coupes as evens fits in with the 6-series too. ------------- MattB E36 328i Sport in silver

I can't put my finger on why, but that car reminded me of a Rover75. It is the nicest looking design BMW have come up with in a long time though. ------------- Entering an age of Austerity and now driving a Focus Diesel. |

Wow! it's even more obvious when you see the two pictures together. Have BMW struck a deal with rover? Mind you the 75 was designed when BMW owned rover. I don't thinks it's a bad thing either. I like the rover 75. ------------- Entering an age of Austerity and now driving a Focus Diesel. |
