[QUOTE=JEllis;1922967]No and here is why

Both the RS4 and C63 AMG are in the mid 60's and come standard with 19" wheels and leather. The new M3 comes standard with speed cloth and 18" and is built in greater numbers.

60-62K would be about right if the new M came with 19" and leather... so if you take the price of leather and 19" out of 60-62K then you come up with a price between 56-58K....

I think 57K is a good and fair estimate... best case would be around 55k and worse case in my opinin would be 60K. Putting the price of the new M around the GTR (which comes standard with everything) would be a mistake. at 57K the price of the new M with most of the desired options, including DCT, is already on par with the GTR.



No standard 19" wheels on the C63. The 19's are part of the performance package, and reports have it the US will not receive the bigger wheels.

I believe in the UK, the C63 actually undercuts the M3 in base price by a small margin.
