I am considering what my next BMW should be. I could consider an M3 sedan, but not a coupe (I have 2 kids). Does anyone know if an M3 sedan is coming?

I've heard there will be both 2 door and 4 door versions on the E90 M3.

Here is something that's circulating around the M web. Some people claim it is "photoshopped". I'm sure some of you have seen this before. It's not the sedan M3, but supposedly what the 2007 M3 will look like.

Regarding the spypics of the M3 in the link Iceman provided...

You can spot these other dead give-aways that it is indeed from Bavaria:

The Hoffmeister kink;
Shark-fin antenna;
e90 side-view mirrors;
e90 clear side markers; and
Angel eyes. Yup, you can see them behind that pseudo-front bumper disguise.

Oh, yeah, saw the spy pics. I bet that little car is going to FLY with 400 horsepower under the hood!
