I'm still struggling to understand why the new M3 has 4 doors, historically the M3 has always had 2, whatever happened to the terms 'coupe' (2 doors) and 'sedan/saloon' (4 doors).
More money to be had in calling it something that it isn't? I've answered my own question!

Agreed Neil, although the E30 M3 wasn't a coupe, it was a 2-door saloon. E36 was the first "coupe"

The V8 does sound awesome

From experience the stock car exhaust system didn't quite match the audio on the video.

Still a magic engine.....will be missed
