he said that they just went to some meeting last week, and they said that the second year of the M3 it will have a V8,... slightly detuned M5 engine, supposedly putting out about 380 or soo,. and thy euro over 400,... and then the US M5 will be putting out 460 or soo,. and the euro M5 over 500, i doubt all that though,... but he said that they are considering the color, b/c of so many request letters,.... its a nice color though,. i just dunno if i would get it,. it seems like it would be as popular as estoril,. or black,... which they are all nice colors,. but they are just too common,... anyways,. i hope this helps....
