Came across these latest spy shots of the e90 M3 coupe.
The M3 saloon spotted in Sweden as well!

Looks like the headlights will remain the same across all versions of the new M3. However, the spy shots of the saloon show the taillights to be the same as the non-M e90. Only the coupe gets the revised taillights.

More pictures here.

It's funny how the photoshopped picture of the M3 sedan has the left-rear tire sooo much wider than the right-rear while the photoshop of the coupe has both left side tires wider than the right.

Spy shot looks good nice bit of lift off in the front wheel

The photoshops don't look right to me - they look like amateur jobs - not professional. If I was paying for a visual - I'd be sending these back!

Hopefully the final product will be more cohesive, but these just look like someones tried to bang on big wheels and a front spoiler.

1st pic ok.
The other pics... i hope it won't look anywhere close to that. I hope that's just a bad photoshop with a 3 series coupe with downsized m5 front bumper, also with 166and167 rims. I hope they don't make it look as a downsized m5.

This seems interesting :
"The V8 will be more compact than the current in-line six cylinder model, while a longer wheelbase will help with weight distribution."

Not a bad thing IMO since the E60 and the Z4 coupe are the best looking cars in the line up right now.
