Better luck next year: M3 sold out in the UK for '07

BMW plans on selling 700 M3s in the UK this year, but if you haven't already put in your order, better luck next year. Not only are the Brits excited to get their own M3, they're also packing on the options, as this year's orders average £4,700, with the optional 19-inch rims being high on everyone's list. BMW is expecting the interest level to remain high into the future, as it plans to ship 2,000 of their 414 HP rocket ships next year.
It should come as no surprise that M3s are flying off the shelves right now, since BMW has added high-end V8 power to the already outrageously successful 3-series. We fully expect to see similar sell-out stories in other countries, including here in the US, as the M3 is one rockin' ride.

Even with the V8, the m3 of tomorrow is less M3 of years past. Each year the M series seems to get more watered down, bigger and more comfortable.
It should be holy-shit powerful, barely street legal and as uncomfortable as a BMW can get. Stop with the 4 doors and iDrive sat-nav crap.
This is an M, there should be no compromises.

Only 2000?
They must be mad.
They could sell 2000 in Canada alone! Everyone here drives E46 M3s. I see at least 10 a day!
