In Reply to: We are less than 70 days away from information posted by Torch on January 29, 2000 at 09:43:33:

: The clock is on. BMW will be publishing the initial specs on the new M3 within 70 days. Can't wait, all the speculation will be gone and we'll start talking about data.

: The majority of the conversation will center around seeing the beast live.

: Back awhile ago I posted some incorrect data. I said that torque would be over 300. Sorry, the number will be in the 275 range. As tested right now by BMW themselves, car performs 0-62 in 4.9. They won't post a 4.9 number. They will be conservative and come out with 5.1-5.3. Car and driver will take this to 4.6-4.8.

: Colors will include Dakar Yellow and not include the funky violet. Delivery in the US will start in October 00. Allocation will be appx 2/month for high volume dealers and more sporatic for the lower volume guys.

: My dealer in Mass. already has 26 people on the list. I'm number 3 and can't wait.

: Let the good times roll.
