Re: 4 door m3?
Yes, the four door _sedan_ as it's called. Only 22 pounds heavier too.
Everything else seems to be the same according to brochure 711 003 460 25 2 2007 VZ
The CF roof has to be sacrificed if you want the optional sunroof.
Would be nice if they had a "Normal Driver" aerokit to get rid of fabulous rear end and too-aggressive front.

Re: 4 door m3?
There was a Black 4-Door and a Cobalt Blue Coupe at the BMW dealer in Fairfax.
To be honest, the Four Door looks a little more masculine do to it's more compact (more on that below), boxy and upright appearence. This car definitely looks better in lighter colors since this shows off more the detailing and body lines.
Black pretty much absorbs the character of the car.
And here's a shocker - the 4-Door is actually SHORTER by like and inch and half than the COUPE. Doesn't make sense, but I looked at the measurements in the brochure and sure enough, the wheelbase is the same but body on the 4-Door is shorter.

^yes sir, the CF roof is not available on the sedan
That's right. No CF roof on sedan (4-door), period. Only steel roof avail. on sedan with or without sunroof.
CF roof ONLY avail on the sunroof-less coupe.
If you want a sunroof on coupe then you sacrifice the CF roof.
Re: 4 door m3?
Pardon me but I fkn hate it! WTF is with the rear end? Of course the front end's gotta have that aggressive "get-out-of-my-way-because-I'm-an-AH" look. But did they have to make the rear end look fabulous while they were at it?
Photo below show "corrected" look for back. Or I'll take grandma's car's rear end over this latest fabulous fk up.
Yeah, yeah, they need the vent for the heat transfer. but did they need to make it so frilly and fairy tale? Frickin stuuuupid looking, geez!
oops, rant over (_not_ sorry).

Re: 4 door m3?
A friend of mine who changes cars fairly often just acquired the first M3 sedan in Jerez Black in Washington about a week ago. It's impressive looking in person so I'd suggest you guys reserve final judgment until you've seen one in person. I still can't get over the fact that the price now is the same or even more as the last generation M5 for a fully loaded M3 coupe/sedan.

That's one thing that I found disturbing when I saw the two at Fairfax last week. I saw the sticker and just shook my head ... although I'm a BIG M3 fan and really love the car, I just CANNOT justify paying that much for a 3-series. No way, no how.
I mean we're talking used Porsche CS or 996 Turbo money now.
And yes, I know the Dollar is weaker to the Euro so you would expect the upward exchange adjustment, but c'mon ...

Hi I saw this the other day and just thought I'd post it. Didn't even know they were bringing out a 4 door E92 M3?
No CF roof with this model.
You really need to start paying more attention Mike
There's even going to be a E93 M3 Convertible, all 1,9 tons of it
Here are some comparison tests btw the Sedan and a rival, guess which car wins (Don't read this Wayne
)
Comparison Test: 2008 BMW M3 Sedan vs. 2008 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG
I think it looks pretty good (and mean) in black:

Don't trust Edmunds anyway. Here is one I prefer. Auto Express link
Re: 4 door m3?
I kind of like the M3 Sedan 
Seen the New Jaguar (Mondeo look a like) and the new A4 this weekend and compared to that the 3 series looks a lot better/fresher in my opinion.
I'm normally a big Audi fan, love the A6 and A5, but the A4 is a bit too plain. Even the flashy LEDs don't help..
