2013/2014 Clarification of F80 M3 production
Okay, so I've been reading here and there and all seems a bit scattered about the production year of F80 M3. I'm a bit confused..
1. E92/E93 M3 productions are ending Spring of 2012. Correct? 2. Earliest F80 M3 INTRODUCTION to public is Fall of 2012?? 3. Earliest F80 M3 production for US market is WHEN? (In other words, when can we (US residents) order F80 M3?) |

E92/3 production probably won't end until November at the earliest.
F80 US production probably won't happen before July 2013.

One need only look at the distances of each model. There really is everything!
Introduction of E90: March 2005 E92 Introduction: September 2006 E90 LCI implementation: September 2008 Eiführung E92 LCI: March 2010! There were always 18 months in between! Now that the F30 was introduced in February 2012, the F32 will probably come in August 2013 on the market! Therefore, it is on the current status as follows: The E92 and E92 series are yet to be built around June 2013, and with them the M3 models. As long as the are still available, there is no F80 will be in stores! There remain two possibilities: 1) With the setting of F80 Series E92/93 is introduced, ie June / July 2013 2) The series E92/93 will run until June / July 2013, but the M3 will be set in advance and replaced by the F80 sedan! Is unlikely that V6 and V8 will be offered in parallel! |

Matt Russell shed some light into this during our interview at NAIAS. There will be a E92/3 M3 in the calendar year 2013, and there won't be a new M3 while the E92/3 M3 are still in production. That's why we also anticipate the F80 to be available in Summer 2013 at the earliest. See below for Matt's answers.

No M3 until 2013.
In Beijing 2010 BMW presented the Gran Coupe Concept Car. Which it was actually a preview of the new 6er. But as a four door Coupe. Later in Paris 2010 , BMW Presented a 6er Coupe Concept Car. In April 2011 , BMW launched the 6er Coupe. And now in March they launch the 6er Gran Coupe in Geneva. You can see the timeline.

My lease runs until February 2013!
When asked if I would like to change the port on the F80, I was told in Garching: "No, it would be 6 months will need to renew! But then they can go the F80!" Thus would the appointment August 2013 actually be realistic! |
