Pics Aplenty: 2008 BMW M3 Sedan - desktop wallpaper-sized pics
click on any image to view high-res gallery of 2008 BMW M3 Sedan
In our haste to bring you news of the 2008 BMW M3 sedan being unveiled, we showed you the best official pics we could find at the time, which were only 800 pixels wide. We don't know many people with 800 pixel-wide monitors, so we updated our gallery with high-resolution pics straight from BMW. They're 1,280 pixels wide, which should cover most screens corner to corner.
We noticed a couple of things about BMW's new M sedan this time around that we missed before. Take a closer look at the steering wheel, which features red and blue stitching that mimics the M colors. Also notice two shots of the M3 Sedan's trunk at the end of the gallery. One shows a parcel shelf that slides out from underneath the trunk's ceiling, while the other shows how much cargo room is available with the back seats folded forward. We thought these pics particularly interesting because they illustrate the entire point in BMW making an M3 sedan: more utility. The M3 Coupe is great, but not nearly as practical as the M3 Sedan will be.
To download the larger pics, just browse the gallery and right click on your favorite pics. Save the images to your computer, and the 1,280 pixel-wide version will be downloaded regardless of what size pic you're looking at.

What monitor these days is only 1280 pixels wide? I'm working on a 1680x1050 monitor these days, and many widescreen laptops are at least that large.

There's always at least one guy who feels the need to quietly enhance his penis by stating something isn't big enough or powerful enough because what he uses is better.
Most people haven't moved past 1024 x 768; please get over yourself.

Brian E. has a point. The new pics are an improvement, but my screen is 1440x900, so I'd still have to re-size them.
When the time comes for you to replace your monitor with a new one, Justin, chances are it will have a recommended resolution higher than 1024. And the world is going widescreen/HD format.

I prefer the regular sedan's front end. If I was able to choose among all of the 3 series varients, I'd choose the 335i sedan.

I hate regular 3 series back. It's the ugliest in whole BMW lineup. The Coupe is so much nicer imho and it shows the directions newer designs will go.

Justin, that comment is ironic on a post about the M3.

those wheels look horrendous, the hood looks like the driver already hit a deer, and the crossed drilled rotors look like a boy racer mobile. i'm a little disappointed in bmw's styling on the latest m3... especially because the e90's are so beautiful. but without a doubt, probably still insanely fun to drive.
ps. Make widescreen wallpapers for the rest of us!

Er haven't all the M-Cars had the tri-color stitching on the steering wheel for quite some time?

More wallpaper here http://m3blog.net . I hope they fixed the annoying rear subframe issue that plagued the E46. I fear that one day my car will crumble due to stress to the subframe :-O
