One more thing, it is those hard core loyal M guys who go to the dealers and preorder the car, and they slap them with a "tax for loyalty"?!?!?! That's a bad practice BMW, BAD!!!
M3 is a highly sought after car especially in car county of Los Angeles, a 10-20k mark up is easily possible in the first year. MSRP will not likely be had for 6-12 month. Given a M5 I saw a month ago is in range of 100k before tax, it's very likely the m3 will msrp with options around 70-80k range to leave room for a M2 in the 50-60k range as true successor of m3.
