Gorgeous car, I believe the color is only available with the comp pkg. I've heard that the alcantara is not a good material for the steering wheel, and looks like hell after a while.
As much as I like M3's, my wife made a very sobering observation: in a few years, I will be too old to drive a "kid's car" (in her words) so "we" voted against an M3 and looked at the e60 and e39 M5. Seems like most M3 drivers are in their 20's around here.

I hope BMW sells the next iteration of the M3 in the $70K USD. In my opinion this puts a little more prestige in owning one and you're unlikely to see many on the streets.

[/quote]Ya... exactlly why I dont like the M3 as much... its one sweet ass car but too many daddys buying it for their kids in high school / college because they want it and cuz the dad can afford it. It weakens the status of the M3 because of that. Just my opinion...
