From what I've heard 3 series are all going to be sedans from now on and 4 are all coupes, so m4 I would guess

i thought that the outpouring from enthusiasts about changing the m3 name made them change their minds, i hope they don't lose the m3 name, it looks nice

I think the V8 or I8 is closer to 4 liter than 3 liters, therefore they will switch the name. Remember the last I6 already had 3.2 liters..

I'm just interested to see what a 2005 looks like in about ten years... with some wear on it... that should be interesting...

M BMW is an unknown quantity at this point
Hi. I heard the the coupe will be called the M4 and the sedan will be the M3. Yes, they will have the V8 in there but I read that there will be no weight gain because of the use of Magnesium.

Thanks.
Bye.
