<E46> M3 specs



I was at the newsstand yesterday and saw the latest copy of BMW magazine
(you know, the European rag) and it had spy shots of the E46 M3 on the
cover.

They claim it'll be 3.4 liters with ~340bhp.  Sounds feasible since it's
the same 100bhp/liter as the current Euro version at 3.2l and 321bhp.
Also, they say that there won't be a 4-door since it'll compete with the
M5 as a sports-sedan.  There'll be a 2-door coupe and possibly a wagon.
If I recall correctly, it mentioned that the US will get the same Euro
version.  They also stated that it might have a lot of those new driver
enhancement type deals like mentioned in the Roundel.  

Release date is mid-2000 so that gives me about a year and a half to win
the lotto.
