ewww, I'll pass on that brown.
I want to second the comment on wishing the CF roof can accept a rack or at least confirmation whether it can or can't. Otherwise, nice to know there probably will be a comp package and more colors later when I'm ready to buy sometime in 2016. |

I kind of like those browns. Mature, understated, classy. I can seen why some would choose them. I just won't be one of people.
Overall, very informative Q & A. And it seems the confusion about curb weights comes from the inherent lack of standardization in the whole system. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. |

+1 I would have thought the passive suspension would've been between comfort and sport. No adaptive suspension for me...even though the comfort mode would might be better on these crazy LA streets.

I'm confused. Must I get the Active M Suspension to be able to disable the auto-blip on downshifts, or will I have Sport and Sport + settings available to me without ordering the Active M Suspension? OR are we talking about the two "M" buttons here?

Any combination of those settings (plus DSC and DCT settings) can be programmed in the two M buttons. Hope this helps clarify Last edited by CanAutM3; 04-18-2014 at 09:55 AM.. |

thanks jason for your great interviews as always!
If the performance parts are available in autumn of this year, when will they be revealed?

Anyone else also notice the EPA MPG ratings might be a lot lower than expected? I thought they were going to be somewhat close to the 27/28 quoted on the European data. 20-25% more than the 16 MPG of the 2011 M3 is terrible at 20 mpg. what a dissapointment.

I'd be very positively surprised if I get 20 mpg combined taken that I got 18 mpg from my N54 car. Very similar engine with 130 hp less, power doesn't come for free. I'm expecting similar mpg as my E90 M3 ( 15.5 mpg ), likely one to two mpg better anything above that is a bonus unless I'm cruising on the hwy where it should return around 30 mpg on cruise control.

I am guessing both will be offered as they are both already mentioned in the Canadian ordering guide. The interviewee might have made a slip of the tongue.

I am hoping that pressure on BMW to find a solution to the roof rack problem w/ the CF will resolve that shortcoming.
