M3 GTS

[nickythesaint]

Hi BMW fans.

Is the GTS coming out in 2010 or 11?

Its a bit bloody pricey, but I have to admit, I'd rather have one of those than a porker.

Sold out....they are only making 150. I think it's maybe 10 or 20 coming to the UK. I am sure Tom Hartley or the like will probably get their hands on one. It's stupidly over prices but with so few made it may actually hold it's value....who knows. Depends how well they have vetted the people that have been allocated one I suppose.

10 are coming to the U.K and i read you were individually selected by BMW u.k who they thought were worthy of owning one.

Absolute nonsense. If you have the money you can have a car, just ask your dealer if you know them well. I have been offered a car, how many people want to spend 115k on that orange monstrosity....not many. Barely even 10 I would wager

i didn't believe BMW would individually select the M3 GTS owners, i am pretty positive i read that in BMW CAR magazine though.

There a a few numbere been put about but the last number i read in one of the bmw magazines was only 3 are coming to the uk but that could be registered cars only and maybe a few just for racing?but as said above i would not spend over 100k on one in a million years.saw 2 at the ring last summer and was not impressed especially with the color.there will be a few on the market by now after people have had them for about 6 months and want to get rid of them.

We have been told 12 are coming to the U.K and BMW are looking into every potential buyer and making a Yes/No decision based mainly on previous BMW ownership and length of ownership.

i wonder that if people buy one and then sell on about 6 months later, how much money they will lose, i remember the E46 CSL lost a lot of money quite quickly.

Spoke to the guys at bmw at the autosport show and they said 15 were coming to the uk and that they had sold just over 130 cars in total and not 150.

[melvster]

Yeah i was told that as well, 15 coming to the U.K, 135 cars have been sold in total

I would not like to be the 1st owner on this one.
