Hey, LeMans, don't forget your "SPOILER Alert" (of course, that can mean many things in this thread)

Its a hybrid between regular and CSL version. Notice the CF roof and interior.

I like it. It gives the already good-looking E92 a more beefy, strong look. I don't like the hood one bit, though. Power bulges and the hood vents seem more 1970's muscle car than something that comes from Bavaria. The steering wheel is a little gross, too. Hopefully the Alcantara wheel won't be standard.

So no word on SMG vs. DSG....Maybe they will be smart and release it as a 6-speed manual only and then fine-tune DSG for later production E92 M3 as an option.

What is SMG? You know the answer.

Looks like the M3 concept car in Geneva had a traditional manual tranny (you can see 3-pedals)

Is that a Honda Accord with a body kit or a BMW??? I do not like the new style of BMW.
