ummm if those prices are in EUR, at current rates the starting price is over 73t.

Seems a little high, no?

It's never a direct conversion from Euros to USD. If that was the case our cars would cost a lot more than they do now.

THere's no way the new M3 is going to start at $73,000 USD.

I'm aware of that. That's why I can't comprehend someone posting prices that are apparently in EUR.

Actually if you do a cross-calculation of the E46 and E92 M3's with regards to their US and European MSRP you should be able to get a good idea of what the base price will be.

that might work, I suppose, if you ignore the 40% appreciation that the EUR has had since pricing on the e46 was set.

I still don't get what numebrs you've posted. Were they calculated? Are they actually in EUR? If they are in EUR, what's the point without knowing what conversion rate will be used?

If the Euros have appreciated then US prices will increase accordingly.

The numbers I posted are in Euros. If you have time you can do a cross-calculation to get a rough idea what they will cost in the US. I have no idea what you meant with the question "were they calculated?"

What I dont understand is why you kept asking if they are in Euros when I've clearly stated that they are.

You're an funny guy. Im sitting here trying to figure out why you're asking me all these questions which IMO are pointless. So take my post for what's worth and leave it at that.

I'll make it simple for you. Based on what you posted, what will someone pay for an M3 in USD?

Pretty sure this information was a hoax that was posted sometime last August (yes, 2006). Notice (as mentioned) the reference to SMG-III which was widely thought to be the auto-like tranny on the M3 until we all got word about the DCT.

I don't believe these prices, USD or EUR. Too low for UDS and too high for EUR.
Let's wait for some official release.

No matter what, the C63 will be a serious threat/competitor to the M3. BMW might have some problems coming out on top this time.

I seem to recall similar numbers posted a few months back and it was quickly determined that they weren't real.

Either way, why would they release US prices in Euros?
