M-Power.com ending 1M closed room while teasing a new M Car. Last chance for 1M Gift

rori zahr · 02-28-2011, 02:52 AM

M5 is no longer a scoop, it's being out there for test for months now.
this should be "IMHO" the M6

rex5272 · 02-28-2011, 05:30 AM

Should be the

Z4M Mdrive40is

That would be epiccccccccccccccccc

or maybe even a 2012 M3 Xdrive competition.

OMG WHAT IF IT WAS AN M7!?!?!

bavarian19 · 02-28-2011, 06:25 AM

M5

E90jonno · 02-28-2011, 07:14 AM

M3 touring

R12ax7 · 02-28-2011, 08:17 AM

Can we not register for this gift in the US?

M3 touring would be so great....no chance though (at least not here in the US)

4) F12 M6

Take your pic...

The next few M vehicles (in order that I am guessing they will show up):

F10 M5
F13 M6
F12 M6
E89 Z4M
F25 X3M
F22 1M
F1X M6 Gran Coupe
F32 M3
F33 M3
F2x X4M

My guess is the next M Power closed room car is the Z4M. I would give the X3M a close second.

Yogijet · 02-28-2011, 10:46 AM

I bet it's the X3M. I wonder what engine it'll use. The current in the 1SMC or the upcoming engine in the next M3? Latter probably too far away in time.

SCOTT has already suggested that the Z4M will preview the new M3 engine similar to how the F25 X3 previewed the new F2x/F3x 1/3 chassis.

The engine will no doubt be a turbo I6. If the X3M comes first (before the Z4M, I mean) then I suspect that the engine will be in a lower state of tune than the M3 will have, similar to how the X5/X6 M have an S63 that is tuned differently to how it will be in the new F10 M5.

It's also possible that the M3 will actually get a similar yet different engine based on a brand new series I6 since its far enough out that such an engine may debut by that time. In other words, if there's a new "N56" planned for release in the next few years, M3 will probably get an "S56", while Z4M and X3M will almost surely get an S55 base on the current N55.

It's the new M5. Preparing for the premiere in Shanghai Autoshow in April.

Special edition M3...

The M5 and M6 have been out there testing for months. Neither will "hit the roads" in 2011 as a production vehicle. Correct?

In addition, I would think the enthusiasts would have dug up some type of information or spy shots on another vehicle like the X3M or Z4M. Both COULD hit roads in 2011 but both would at least have been seen on "the ring" or somewhere, especially the X3 since its a new vehicle and would need to be tested a bit more.

Dr. Kay Segler DID mention that they were going to crank out a few M3 special editions this year...

Edit: The picture does look like a cave... X3M? I say this because when i think of cave i think of Off roading and adventure.

mb1 · 02-28-2011, 06:35 PM

a 1M with the S65 motor. Who's with me?

They said they were not making the M1. Then out of now where they said they would.

They said they weren't making Concept CS. Then they kinda did, and instead used designs in all new models.

They said some similar stuff with the i8. Now, DEFINITELY.

d3l0n · 02-28-2011, 08:29 PM

I might throw up at a X3M. It would be "cool" to rock with tho for those that like the JEEP SRT8s i guess.

Yogijet · 02-28-2011, 11:56 PM

Thanks and sounds logical. Whatever it is, and I'm not a van lover, an X3M should be pretty spectacular.
