M3 touring - well not quite

I forgot all about this car, until checking out an M3 touring at midland car care.

It does look rather good, check our next lot of upgrades

Who would not get one if they made them?

(Ok I know it's not an F31).

I am surprised BMW never released an M3 touring considering there is a C63 AMG estate and Audi RS4 Avant. An F31 with flared arches and a bonnet bulge could look so good.

I would definitely look at getting one.

Would an F31 Be an xdrive though?

I'm not when you look at how many M3 saloons there are compared to coupe's!

They have a lot of cars like this in Australia. They call them Utes. You can get them with proper v8s. I think the tax laws are different for Utes as they're classed more like a van. So in Australia this thing may be popular.

I have driven a fair number of purpose built Utes and same in states.

Those invariably are big V8's and van like.

Not sure I would do it to something over 60k etc.
