The M3 is currently expected to debut next year in Geneva, though we may very well have the official info before then. Assuming that happens, production should begin around that time as well, hopefully with deliveries in thr first half of next year.

In the meantime, there are still rumors of a concept in Frankfurt later this year.

As for M4s, I don't think those will be in owners hand until 2015.
Could be right and were the expected bad news. Some sources claims the debut for Shanghai Motorshow 2014 in April - as most debuts of the last Ms, because of this "biggest market"-thing ... first deliveries than in early summer (Frühsommer) 2014 - meens may/june(?).

And then the great question was "When would the F30 get its expected LCI/Facelift" -> early 2015(?) ... and would that meen, that the F80M3 gets also its LCI around this time ... and LCI would meen "Competition Package" = hp bump + better sportier suspension and steering + CCBs + special (nice to have!) wheels ... and of course CP can not be retrofitted.

Seems to be not the best news for early M3-buyer and fans.

I would stay away from the new TC M3/M4 for at least 2 year models after launch. Based on past BMW history especially on boosted engines if you buy early new models expect headaches and disheartening problems. I don't think it is worth the excitement to be an early model owner. The later year models are usually the one you want, not to mention better options usually. Therefore the E92 is the best car to have for at least 3-4 more years

Can't wait for this car. It may not sound as good but with the turbo setup it could be a 600hp beast with just a JB4 and E85. Best part you get to keep your Warrenty.

It has been told M3 is coming late 2013 and M4 is coming mid/late 2014, but I just found our Jason says “M3 and M4 introduced together late 2013 - early 2014” in this post and the future timeline shows both will premiere in January 2014 (maybe at NAIAS in Detroit?)
Can we expect the M4 launch that fast?

Gosh I hope so. It's so tough waiting for this M4 and I'm also really worried I'll be disappointed. Wasn't too thrilled with the 4 series debut. Might get the Tesla Model S or somethin' if the M4 doesn't work out.

I spoke with my SA the other day and she said the Ms debut a year after. So worst case we'll be waiting till September 2014.

If it debuts later this year or earlier next year would be so great..

I feel the next M3/M4 is the natural extension/successor of the N54 335i more so than the current M3.

Word! Mine has N54 too. I'm not a fan of N55.

Thats going to be one hell of a car. the current c6 Z06 is FAST, the new one should be nuts.

I have a M3 coupe, have two booster seats in the back for my kids. They love to go in the zoom zoom car. Get the coupe. Reality is you are not gonna want real car seats back there regardless, will dig into the leather. Boosters are fine with a seat protector.

Do what i did, buy your wife a decked out sienna with all the bells and whistles. You will need a family car regardless ...

The new 435i with the M sport package looks great. I can't wait for the new M4. I love my M3, but the new M4 is going to be great!
