i have to say, i liked the sedan better.... can't really put my thumb on why.
both were blue, both had quite a crowd around them. the sedan had the 19" wheels...they looked great. the coupe had the gray 18's... they looked just alright.... too much rubber. i know they are 18's, but damn the sidewalls looked big... rubbery, not slick and low profile. i didn't get a chance to get in one.... the wife wouldn't let me stop

Weird that they would put the 18" on the Coupe rather then the Sedan, maybe it was a mix up but I'm sure no one would buy an M3 with 18" But then again the E46 had both options.

+1 on the sedan looks more aggressive from the back. Kinda like a mini M5. Both were at my dealer as well. Red ones. 66k for the sedan and 70k for the coupe.

I drove the new M3 this weekend. Very impressive power, great handling but felt like powerful couch comming from the Z4M. I love the V8 sound also. I would love to have that motor in a Z car.
