M3/M4 BMW M3 GTS is SOLD OUT

[Zafiro]

Sorry everyone in Europe and the UK, looks like the GTS is completly sold out. Despite the very high price tag and talk that the price did not represent a good value, it seems that BMW had it right the whole time. They were able to move everyone of these cars very quickly. The actual production volume for this car has not been revealed but production will begin in May 2010.

BMW M3 GTS sold out!

He can't, the BMW hate is too strong.

As for the GTS, this announcement was bound to happen. They aren't making a whole lot, and there are so many BMW fans willing to pay this kind of money for this kind of car it's not even funny. BMW themselves are the only ones not realising this. But they're starting to see the light, with the M1 also coming.

Hey look, it's Mr. Happy! I wonder what really positive things he has to say about this BMW.

Being so limited, I doubt they bothered to put it through the federal crash test or EPA certification. But a few will probably make it through private channels and show up on track days.

The M3 GTS is not federalized for the US Market.
Surprsingly the M3 GTS demand is in the EU , followed by the Middle East and lastly some markets in Asia.
The media will be getting behind the wheel very soon. The car will also be on show in Geneva but will probably be locked.

Oh No....

In what way could that possibly be surprizing?

Let's hope BMW sees this as the WAKE THE F-UP! call...they need a UNIQUE brand building Ultimate Sports Car i.e. R8 competitor, sooner rather than later!

In what way could that possibly be surprizing?

That a car of this limited status and price gained a larger customer base in the EU rather than one would expect in the Middle East market.
The SLS AMG for example a large majority of 2010 production is going to the Middle East.

Meh, they're all AdvEvo clone babies.

And, as far as I'm concerned the M3 GTS never really was "on sale" so it being "sold-out" is rather inconsequential. The M3 GTS is nothing more than a very limited, and admittedly, special curiosity. It's very much a pin-up car as opposed to a fully fledged competitive - in the commercial sense of the word - product. In other words, the GT3 RS isn't losing any sleep over this car.
