but they also haven't really make turns in the cars

The new 335is even looks like an M3

No, it will start @ high 40's to compete head to head w/ the S4.

I'm guessing $47,000 to start, w/ DCT and M-Sport you're looking at $52,500.

Add more for leather and metallic paint.

That doesn't make sense because the current M3 is at 58k MSRP, and that makes 412hp with all the ///M goodies. My guess is it will be around the high 40 maybe 48 or 49 but no more than 51. Why would they make a car that has less power/technology than the current E92 M3 but more money?

I don't know if this is significant or not but the product planning sheet says BMW Canada, is this going to make it to the states?

I've bought two 335i. An 2009 E90 335i x drive starting at 42,000. An 2008 e93 335i vert starting at 50k. Both cars ended up being 62k out the door.

Damn that's a lot of torque with that over-boost. I think the IS350 will take quite a beating. Heck, I can't even keep up with my cousins 335i with my IS350, and he is stock.

So, you checked every box on the options sheet - It doesn't mean you couldn't get one for high 40's / low 50's.

No... BMW nickel and dimes on all their options, so the base MSRP really means absolutely nothing, and just a few options can bump the price significantly. Good luck finding one close to base. You end up doing a special order and paying MSRP... so might as well get more options and get a discount from the lot.
