    Oh mamma! Should I wait for the 2015 Mustang Boss and ATS-V, or jump at this since it arrives first... Decisions, decisions...

    WHY IS AN M CAR USING A STEERING WHEEL FROM MINI!?!? NOT OK BMW! Otherwise, nice car. But i shouldnt be able to instantly recognize they raided the parts bin for that. Shame!

    Impressive performance. I find it pretty incredible just how many cars can perform the sprint from 0-60 in under 4 seconds now. Considering how few could do this just a handful of years ago.

    Why is the Corvette convertible the main article and the first real images of the M3/M4 tucked away in the "news"? I only know to look in that section because I see something interesting on Yahoo. Yes, Yahoo. New Mustang, yeah, Yahoo too.

    Edmunds site is growing increasing irritating to me. The home page just looks like its full of advertising and I have never once really looked at it, just dig through to find "Whats hot." The main page should be about whats hot! Isn't that the point of checking a website, to find the latest information?!

    ed341, here's how I deal with that problem. www.edmunds.com/whats-hot

    I have the page bookmarked for easy access, or I just type that address in right away. I do agree though, I miss insideline.

    Given how good the other turbo 6 engines are I find it hard to believe that any enthusiast is worried about blunt response from the engine. The steering however, that is a bigger question. Can BMW take a page from Porsche's book and get their electric PS to feel 95% as good as the prior hydraulic PS?

    95% as good is a pretty generous target. I can see the successful advertising campaign now: "The new BMW M3 - 95% as good as the old one." Automakers should always ALWAYS design to be at least as good as the outgoing model.

    Should be interesting to see what Cadillac will bring with the ATS-V sedan and coupe

    An M3 with a manual would make me happy, even if it came with a Bose stereo!

    Edmunds - a new m3 emerges and you get 10 comments on it. Should be evidence to your advertisers of lower engagement and is probably evidence of reduced viewership.

    Sometimes you stop sinking good money after bad and simply re-do the darn website to return it to it's former glory.

    They look fantastic, however, I still wished that Bimmer didn't make the coupe a "4" series, come on! They are so similar inside and out buyers are not really getting anything different other than door counts...just saying...

    Two words first, Big Deal! Here's why:
    With the current E92 M3 coupe base MSRP at $62k, I'd expect at least a $4k incrase for the M4 or $66k which is more than Cayman S ($65k), Stingray Z51 C7 ($56). Only thing the M3/M4 will have as an advantage over these two cars is two (+1/2) rear seats. Everyone knows, the new and beautiful 2015 Mustang GT, will offer a real V8 of course!, is American designed and made, will be pushing more than 420hp, 400ftlb, and will cost nearly half as much (at probably around $33k base).
