This is just teasing to us in the US, would love to trade in my X3M for this. Lower weight, center of gravity and almost same cargo room.

Will it have CF roof? Wait I don't want to know.

I wish one of you could explain to me what you could possibly see in a station wagon sports car? I truly truly truly don’t understand it. Please help me out. The Brady Bunch mobile only faster?

Why? So it can sell 12 units? This is the same with the enthusiasts that beg for manuals, a car company offers one and nobody buys it.

To previous posters:

I have an X5M, would prefer the touring. Dog and kids, that's why.
I got a M2 CS, manual.
Don't like Audi or Merc, but was open to the idea of an RS6 until I realized that's impossible to buy at a decent MSRP
Some people will be surprised how many enthusiasts would buy it, even with automatic 😂 definitely more than 12.

I have 0% hope that it will make it to the US.

I'm sure there is a big market for one of these. We should get a voting poll going. Who cares about performance it's a M3 touring. Sign me up Nardo grey with comp pack and auto ftw. Plus the baby seat in the back.

Essentially a flex. It's a very niche segment for customers in the states. Most who say they want one will never buy one. Realistically if you can drop ~$80k-$90k on one car are you really going to buy a performance wagon? The forum is a very small sample size of all customers.

I've asked several dealers to get on a list, or to start one. No go. They won't start a list on a car they know isn't going to come through BMWNA.

I hear you man but honestly you didn’t really answer my question. Perhaps you were not addressing me on my question? I cannot fathom putting a dog, any dog including my precious own dogs into a luxury sports car even if it did look like the Brady Bunch mobile.

Wow. I want one very very badly.

Hey, if RS6 Avant and C43 AMG Wagon can sell here, why not this.

Take mine in all my cars



While I'm a die hard manual enthusiast, I would buy this M3 Touring if it came to the states; even if it meant giving up the manual.

In EU countries people buy this car to get a more practical car than a sedan with almost the same performance and feel as one. There is zero stigma attached to wagons in the EU. They are the prefered choice for alot of people who refuse the drive a SUV for many reasons. When you drive a 3 or 5 series touring, or any of the mercedes / audi wagons on the highway you cant tell the difference from driving the sedan version.
