New 3 Series Touring & Z4 M Spotted

In two weeks time the new E90 3 Series Saloon will be revealed to the public. Going under the platform designation of E91 the New 3 Series Touring model will also follow in the saloon's steps exactly one year from now at the Geneva Motor Show 2006 with North American and European deliveries in late summer/fall 2006. These exclusive photos were taken in Polar Mellatracks in Ivalo Finland. In an effort to block the view of the spy photographer the Z4 takes evasive measures only to reveal its own secret. The M3 wheels hint to a possible Z4 M version on the horizon. Originally BMW brass declined any plans to make an M version Z4 Roadster or Coupe. With disappointing Z4 sales figures so early in its lifecycle perhaps an M version could be just the remedy to inject some new excitement.
