That M4 isn't a concept, it's the actual car.

I believe the new production M3 has been shown. But the new production M4 hasn't.

The 2015 M4 can be built and priced on BMW's website; both the M3 and M4 were unveiled in December roughly a week after the new Mustang and the cars are currently in production...not sure why they are carting around a concept version?

In any regards we are quickly approaching the joke point of a $100k 3-series which won't be far off (let's face it all a 4 is is a 2 door 3 so they can charge more since higher numbers must mean better, lol)...let the people that tell themselves they lease them because they need a new car every few years have them when the reality is they couldnt afford the $1300 a month payment to own it, lol. Lots of jackass snobs in BMW land, wasted too much time on those forums.

Exactly. BMW is following Audi with a different series for the two door variety. There is no way a loaded 3 series is worth $100K. It's ridiculous and tehy are off their rocker.

Agreed, problem is people just keep drinking the Kool-Aid. I can't believe how many $50k BMWs are rolling around in 2014 with halogen headlights, lololol.

No matter how unreliable they are or how stripped they are, people will just keep paying more and more and more for the badge. Oh, and every BMW needs the same tired, recycled Msport package look to look halfways decent. Doesn't matter if it's a 1 series or an X6, it needs Msport, and Msport looks the same on both (lol).

I've owned 2 BMWs, they are very mediocre at best. One was the worst car I have ever owned, bar none.

Problem with the weiners on the BMW forums is that they used to (and still do) act like the M3 is God's chariot...well then the little 5.0 Mustang came around for half the price and Motortrend did a badass full comparison back to back with a professional driver and they performed identically...so then it went from "Well the BMW is faster and handles better" which they used to say to "Well the BMW is in a different class altogether no matter how good _insert car_ is." What class, the unreliable class? Asinine repair and parts shortages class? Stripped out class? There's no pleasing them and their blind faith, if it's not one thing, it's another. lol

I remember when the G8 came out and went head to head with the 5 series. They said the BMW stopped better. $20k and it's better because it stops.

Does that make BMW the ultimate stopping machine?

^...this!
My '11 GT/ CS fills my expectations perfectly, especially the front end. The interior is sweetness in my books as well, the Candy Red paint is just incredible!
I sold myself( and the wife) on getting a '15 V8 GT, that is; till I got to see it in person at the Toronto Auto Show, and that experience left me empty...there is something about the front end that just does not do it for me in the least, it looks/visually feels cheap as hell, if that makes any sense.
The '15 at the auto show, for whatever reason was also locked up, so that also pissed me off...here it is in all it's glory/or lack off for the general public to see/feel sit in and confer with your inner logic/emotions...and they present it ALL LOCKED UP!!!!
The angular interior does not appeal to me, it just does not flow as well, looked very awkward really!
The new width, overall size works well...the fast back rear, especially in profile looks amazing, rear end gets an 8 out of a 10 as well... but then something about the front end just kills it.
Best description regarding the front end; has the look/ feel of a kit being slapped on it....did not seem to be an OEM feel, if you know what I mean.
The added width adds presence to an already amazing car, I'm just too bothered with the overall look on it's front end to commit...and I HATE the squinty lights.
Maybe when I get to sit inside one, and viewing the outside a little more closely, it might start to grow on me a lil more, but as it now stands, I'm totally happy with the look of my '11 GTCS.

I like the interior of the 15 a bit better than the current generation - I think the layout is a bit better, and the materials look nicer. However, I would miss the retro look on the gauges and wouldn't really want the MyFordTouch. Ford definitely could have done a bit better with the current gen interior, but the tradeoff for me with the exterior styling of the current gen (like it better than the 15) made my decision to buy now easy!

I always wanted a Mustang but kept putting it off. Once I saw the 2015, I made up my mind to get a 2014 while I still could. I just really dislike the new look.

I still don't care much for the new look. I still like the 2013/2014 the most of the newer generation mustangs.
