Hi, just found this comment on another E46 M3 forum:

"Well...I'm in Toronto for the weekend and decided to bother Downtown BMW. They got a fax from BMW yesterday stating that the M3 will lose 1 hp b/c of emissions...that's right...342hp for Canada AND US. Fantastic!!! Also, in the fax was mentioned that it's a POSSIBLILTY that, in the future (April?), there will be a special package that offers 360hp. He didn't know any other details."

Well, if this has any truth to it, it seems BMW *are* taking the competition (Audi/MB/Porsche) seriously. If this potential upgrade will be derived from various small tweaks or from the rumoured larger displacement (3,4 l.) we will just have to wait and see...
