Saw this on the way to school this morning!

[skool]

It was about 8:07 A.M. this morning when I was heading for another boring day at school, when I look 2 cars in front of me and see the beast below.
I knew I'd seen this car before and I was right, it was none other than the New BMW V8 M3.
I had seen it first time in June, on the 210 freeway, and this was the second time I saw it.
The pictures aren't of the greatest quality because I took them with my camera phone which wasn't easy while driving. There was no badge on the back, the 2 BMW emblems weren't on there, and the front as well as rear bumper were masked.

Suspension looks a little high, but it could just be the angle.

I dunno, could just be an m option 330

[dude8383]

that is definitly the V8 M3...

how'd it sound?

[trashcop 80s 80s]

Looks hot. It is sitting pretty high though.

[Garageaholic]

I thought it would have different wheels. Perhaps larger with lower profile wheels like the e46 M3 with euro wheels.

Must be a pre-production test mule :D

Most likely. Nice find. In the second pic, it looks like it is accelerating.

That's definately pre-production. Sweet shots, thanks for sharing!

[german g]

wow, lower that beast a little more and I will be in love all over again :-)

cool shots

[MR 325]

You saw it in Glendale? Cool!

If that's even just a pre-production mule, I'm still not liking it. I just don't like the new 3-series at all. In fact, I actually like the 4 door a lot more than the coupe.

BMW should do what Ford, Chevy are doing and come out with a 3 series that closely resembles our cars but obviously more modern.

That would be cool, but those cars that Ford and Chevy are releasing, the throwbacks to the old muscle cars are nothing more than a gimmick marketing ploy, to try and swing their dwindling sales back out of the red. They're cool cars, but that's the biggest reason behind all these "retro" car designs that the big American companies are putting out.

At this point I agree with that. We'll see if the E92 grows on me or not.
