Not exactly spy pics…

In what look suspiciously like purposefully leaked pictures, the new BMW 3 series coupe is exposed. Due to go on sale in Europe in late September, the model lineup includes the all-new 6 cylinder 3 litre twin turbo, with 306hp/228kW and 295 ft-lbs/400Nm of torque, said to be good for 5.5 seconds 0-60mph - not too shabby at all.

Although many BMW purists will cringe at the thought of the turbo model, it is likely to be quite a performer, and can only make you wonder as to what the upcoming new BMW M3 (said to be a V8, turning its back on the fantastic straight 6’s always in the M3) is likely to perform like.
