Probably like 10k... A dealer in CA was selling a 335i Convertable for 10k over... Won't be surprised if I see it on the M///.

I really like an BMW M3 Coupe too! Sick ride! An 2007 BMW 335i Convertible way overpricing compared 335i Coupe! $10,000 more with hardtop!

I miss the S54 inline-6 in the previous gen M3. But I guess we all have to move forward.........

The interior is super-boring though, just like every other E90/E92 3-series. However, the exterior is growing a bit on me. It looks awesome in white.

You know as these cars prices go higher and higher, you got to start thinking Cayman or 911 and I am sure some cross shopping is going to happen more and more.

Wow! That sound is awesome!

Does anybody have any IS-F sound clips other than from the press conference?
