3 Series New 3-series coupe to be released in May 2006


The BMW 3 series is a line of compact executive cars manufactured by BMW since May 1975. It is the successor to the 02 series. Since 2013, coupé and convertible models have been marketed as the 4 Series. The M version of the 3 series, the M3, debuted with the E30 M3 in 1986.

Burkhard Göschel said in his speech at Geneva that the first model to use the new bi-turbo petrol engine will be announced in May. And that have to be the new 3-series coupe! Most likely will E92 go on sale in September 2006.
 
So May it is.

Sounds logical. The E46 coupe is still selling properly, so no need to hurry.

It's just too bad we got all this totally false info all the time.

I just give up. It will come, when it will come.
 
the point is that BMW is not there to satisfy our hope (to release the E92), but it's bussiness. They can't release the new model just because we want to, there has to be a very good reason to do it, and since the E46 sales are good, i can't see any good reason.

I still have my hope that one of theses days, the official pics will leak. I don't give up...
 
Goeschel said the car with N54 engine (335i coupe) will be presented in two months. Not after two months.

Dealers here already have data (order specifications) - because they have to order the prestentation cars for their showrooms. But the embargo on info is mid April. First delivery for customers is in September 2006. Production starts in June 2006.

The E46 coupe is still selling very well - therefore no rush for E92 introduction.
The E46 production ends in May. BMW planned to present E92 much earlier, but since E46 is still selling well there is really no need to rush. Btw, some major dealers and some BMW partners have already seen the car - in special presentation or in BMW VIP launge at Geneva. Everything is ready the marketing dept. just has to pull the plug.
 
Enilab, there will be both 335i coup and 335si coupé or only 335si coupé ?

From what I've been told both: 335i & 335si coupe. And if I got the hint right, 335si would come a bit later.

Maybe with cabrio launch? :t-hands:
 
Now that we're harping about moldy-old selldown BMWs, what about the X5? Any word?

I guess the same as the E46 Osna; last time I saw the sales charts X5 was high up there. There simply is no need for BMW to rush out new models to compete with the competition.

Februari 2006:

BMW reported sales of 19,328 automobiles and Sports Activity Vehicles
(SAV), up 5.3 percent compared to the 18,356 vehicles reported in February 2005
