FYI - Want to see a new M3 and a new 135i? At the DC auto show, there is a white M3 Coupe and a black 135i Coupe on display, both on platforms and fenced off -- no access to sit in them and probe them.

There is a 335d on display - US gets that car by the end of the year. 0-60 in 6 seconds, not bad for a quiet, clean, fuel efficient diesel.

There are some local BMW race cars (RRT) - near the Jeep camp.

Beyond the BMW corporate display you'll see some more BMW race cars and a Hartge V10 E92.
