You do realize your thread title is completely inaccurate. Jay Leno did not "add a M3 to his stable".

As I mentioned earlier, your same sources pegged the v12 as being dead. Then all of a sudden, The stork has delivered this

The larger next gen 1 series is already in testing & it is not FWD. They are testing a rear drive & x-drive version of the car @ present. FWD will just ruin the BMW cache. The company has worked endlessly with its efficient dynamics program to work its way around the tough CAFE standards. Turbo charging is one method as we shall soon see a turbo charged 6 in the next gen M3.

Some reports we find out are pretty accurate. The bottom line is various reports are posted here on the future of a car/company. Some become true, some don't. Also its one thing to post news and its another thing to not read the news, then add your own title and thoughts which are completely wrong.

What a life.
