Estate at the back, but just a right state at the front?

I did notice that they are only showing the rear 3/4 view on all those press shots. It escapes me how they can look at the G20 front and think - yeah..if only the grill was a bit bigger..

dammit, I forgot about that!

Won’t the M3 keep the smaller grill as on the 3 series? Thought the big grill was for the 4 series.

I can’t tell if that’s a 2 door or 4 door

Just seen the boat shoes story, ah fuck this

Finally they build the m3 touring everyone has asked for since the e36.

Just when they also build the ugliest m3 ever.

Retards.

And sales of Estates/Tourings are probably at an all time low, because most people prefer SUVs.

Wankers.

I like the Alfa Giula style front lights. The rest of the new M3/M4 looks very barry, more than the F80 generation.

Forgot to say I went for a drive in Oxfordshire last weekend and passed an imola red e92 M3 going in the opposite direction to me at 8k rpm / wide open throttle. I can't imagine that the latest generation of turbo'd cars would be anything but a massive disappointment after that noise!

Was behind an F82 M4 who was doing plenty of throttle mashing the other day. Might have been an aftermarket exhaust, but it sounded broken at best, and like a POS with a stupid exhaust at worst.

Until you were pulling off a roundabout in your E92 M3 and clock an M240i turbo'd car behind you. Then decide to floor it and leave the aforementioned turbo'd car...and cant

As an owner of naturally aspirated car that was once thought very rapid but is now merely quick I've made my peace with that. I'd rather have the sound and throttle response that the ability to go from 0-60 in 4.0 instead of 4.7 seconds. The same reason why I didn't buy a PDK car.

Electric vehicles will soon render all of this irrelevant so best be stuck with the car that's a classic not a farty carbuncle (I'm referring to the new M4 touring here)

I can’t believe its taken them this long to build one and I can only imagine what sort of eye-watering price its going to go for.

this guys been doing it for ages

They apparently reckoned there wasn't enough of a market for it. I mean AMG Merc and RS Audi's you hardly ever see in estate right?...

It must've all changed somehow, now that the M3/M4 is probably at its most undesirable.

And from a company that not only thought there was a market for an M version of a GT coupe version of a 4 door saloon. And still does with the 8GC.

Baffling.

I’d quite like to build an E46 M3 touring at some point.

New M cars don’t really do it for me though tbh. My mate’s brother had a F10 M5 and while it was stupid fast, it felt too big, too complicated.
