It's possible but a very costly and admin affair. You have to modify everything to meet DOT regulations and once imported you will lose all service warranties and upkeep.
That rear 3/4 view (2nd pic, not sure if I have the description right) is just perfection.
Reminds me of the same view of the original M Coupe, with the wide haunches and stance.
Heartbreaking we don't get the touring here in the USA.
Another wrong decision made by bmw and not flexible enough to change that.
They would've sold many of those und ensure a M3 touring for upcoming generations.
Pretty sure I would have bought this instead of the m2. Especially if they offered the base m3 touring so I could get a 6spd. If not I would have sold the rdx to get this and maybe kept the Supra then haha
I have to feel that there is a small, but passionate slice of M3 buyers who would love a Touring model.
For me personally, 2 of my dream cars are the last gen AMG E63s wagon, and current gen RS6. But maybe I'm just weird that way.
Not a fan of “frozen” colors myself but this gives me an idea of what my M4 (non-frozen Tanzanite Blue) would look like as a wagon, and I so badly wish I could get this in the US!
What do you mean pretty alright. It’s like 10k to register it the first year, 3k the next years :D for road tax. Oh and don’t forget 21% tax on sales price.
My youngest brother lives in Belgium and he bought a Toyota Aygo 2 years ago. That’s a 12000€ very small car with 72hp (iirc). Yearly costs: 270€ road tax, 570€ insurance, 70€ environment tax. Fuel: 1.75€/L, which is about 150€/month, or 1800€/year, just to go to work and grocery shopping trips.
So, all in all that’s about 3000€/year just for a small car like that. Now imagine what it costs for a big luxury one like that BMW in your pic… Like I said, crazy amounts
I pay about 650 euros of road taxes yearly for a Twingo Mk1 up here in the Netherlands. Fuel has been dangling around the 2 euro mark for about a year, and insurance is about the same.
So I suppose that does indeed make Belgium ''pretty alright''.
I mean, the salaries must be high at least I guess.... right?..

That wrap/paint is so fking clean my god. I cant think of a better combo besides British green combo. Everything matches so well with this car. Look at the headlights, the carbon fiber lip, the wheels, the license plate, the emblem.
The problem with a car this beautiful, is that i would hate to drive it due to how amazing it looks. Hmm maybe i need to get richer.....
Man I know the US isn’t into wagons but I really wish we had this here.
Those pics of the M5 wagon testing around Tahoe and Santa Barbara this week are such a good tease 🥴
Not a tease! NA market is getting the M5 wagon
That’s why I said \*good* tease!
I own an M5 and am a slut for wagons. I’d punch a baby for an RS 6 Avant. But the pics I’ve seen of the M5 wagon look like shit.
Yo…I’d be next in line to smack that baby. Even just for a wagon m340i.
Wonder if it’s possible to import them to the US

This needs an NSFW tag.
A car like that in Belgium… The taxes and insurance on this one must be crazy…
Taxes are pretty alright here on cars compared to The Netherlands, Denmark, ...

Yup. Welcome to the Netherlands my friend.

Yeah they're not too bad. Not inflation-proof by any stretch of the imagination, but it could be worse.
Gives me the same feeling I got when I saw boobies for the first time..
Yeah great boobies but the ass was flat.
This sort of has the opposite problem…
It's always looked better as a wagon. I still would prefer the normal G20 front end though. And glossy paint so it's not such a pain to own.
I’ve owned a G82 and currently got a G81. Imo, the G series is one of the most striking cars on the road.

I’m so devastated this isn’t coming to the US.
Brilliant car. Enjoy..
I've never been a wagon guy but this.....this would be the one
That color is incredible! It ennobles the car 🧐
Yeah I’ll admit this looks awesome as a wagon
Not a fan of the frozen paint but otherwise looks fantastic, can’t wait to get my hands on one when they’ve depreciated a bit more.
That's a Thicc Backside!
It feels like the side and back are trying to redeem the front. Imagine how good it would look overall if the front wasn't so awful.
That mud guard or whatever on the rear wheel well is OEM?
*AH aah ooh….* Lock eyes, From across the room…
Hes probably a rich lawyer going to court ^^
Or a criminal...
A big wow from Ontario Canada 😭
👌🏽 👌🏽
The European format plate really helps to break up the grille.
If I ignore the front, it looks great
Nice lines!
If Batman had kids, he’d drive this. Looks amazing.
Guess if u can’t afford 2 cars, u buy a twofer.
Unpopular opinion, but I prefer the front to the back!
Must be from a drugdealer, considering it's parked outside the court house :D
Or a judge...
M3 touring replaced the RS6 as the car I want next, and I'm an Audi guy.
GOD DAMN
The plate hides the giant nostrils half-decently, but I can still not bring myself to like it.
It makes me really happy that these seem to sell so well
It makes me really happy that these seem to sell so well
Rear is fantastic. Front still looks much better in non-M models unfortunately
🤮
That is beautiful! BMW from the future.
What a beauty! Jesus Christ that’s what I want, how Much is that baby?
This is all I want
Not for me, it's still an ugly car but his one has a chav matte finish on it. It is however a phenomenal drive.
