Spied: 2012 M3 GTS Sedan on The Nürburgring!
BMW's 4.4-litre, 444 hp, 4 door Rocket!

BMW's M-division is working overtime! The M3 GTS Sedan Concept, the recently presented show-car previewed a lighter, faster and sharper version of the M3 saloon - likely to be positioned between the standard M3 and the GTS Coupe, traditionally ground occupied by the M3 CSL.

At the Shanghai Show, a spokesman for the brand has revealed that this car will definitely make production, although it won't wear the CSL moniker, as that's reserved exclusively for coupes. Our Teamspeed spies have the pictures that prove: the spokesman was right!

Power output is yet to be confirmed, but its engine is rumoured to be tuned somewhere between the 444-hp GTS and the 414-hp standard car. Whether it will use the 4.0-litre V8 or the bored-out 4.4-litre version from the GTS is unclear.

Bigger brakes, firmer suspension, a lighter exhaust and modified bodywork is all borrowed from the GTS, but the wild rear wing has been swapped for a more subtle boot lip spoiler. Enjoy the pics and stay tuned for more!

 

My dream car. Nice photos.

 

The best of a dying breed! not looking forward to the V6 that is in the works from the M-Division

Sedan m3 ftw

 

Hell yes. That would be a perfect DD.

 

that blue is so solid...just missin some yellow calipers for perfection

 

+1. Perfection.

 

Anyone know the color? Looks like Monaco blue(my fave blue) but I think in another thread they came up with a different color.

 

That actually looks like carbon black.

I am glad they are doing the GTS sedan.

If I keep my M3 sedan, I will definitely look up the part number for the solid fix calipers, the exhaust, etc and put them on my no sunroof, manual cloth seat, 6 speed car.

 

Looks like carbon black to me as well. Why can't they just call it a CSL and offer it in a coupe?
