No. I believe it will be at Detroit auto show in January 2014 which I will be attending.

I sure hope so.. I need to see it in the flesh. If not, I'm hoping the 991 GT3 and Turbo/S will be there. Who has official info?

Multiple print and online sourse have said it will debut at the North American Auto show, which is Detroit. NO IDEA why when we buy more M cars than any other state.

We get the 4 series convertible.

He was asking about the yellow concept car that debuted earlier at Pebble Beach, not the production model.

I don't know the answer for sure, but I very strongly doubt that BMW will ship that car all the way from Germany where it is now (at the Welt) to the west coast of the United States just before they plan to introduce the production model two months later in Detroit. So, OP, I would not count on it.

The M4 will be kept in Germany and showcased at the Essen Motor Show .
And then it will be attending an event in China. It's already been to the UK and other parts of Europe.
The new BMW 4er Convertible will be the premiere in Los Angeles. But overall BMW Group star will be the new MINI ,both will be presented in Tokyo a few days later.
Along with something very apt.

What happened to the X4? There was a concept and then it quietly disappeared from all coverage. Is it due for LA to steal some thunder from the Macan? Sounds like it will need the M3 engine to compete with the 3.6l ~400hp offering from Porsche. X4M?

We are supposed to get a Toyota-BMW sports car concept at Tokyo aren't we? Or something that hints at its design at least? Right?

I'm sure we're going to hear about it soon. Macan Turbo looks like it will be badass. I've heard it will weigh around 500-600lbs less than X3 35i, but with 33% more power and torque. X4M will need the M3/M4 engine and a lot of carbon fiber parts to top it! I'd much prefer an X3M though :/

If the F80 turns out to be disappointing at a test drive there is no sedan on the market that interrests me and not a single BMW across the lineup. I'd be seriously looking at a Macan Turbo while waiting for a another sedan. I doubt that will happen but this new M3 is very different so I'm not ruling anything out. An X3M/X4M would be another interresting option but we'll likely not see that before 2015 if at all. Though, an X4M will likely be a worse M3 so if the M3 disappoints the X4M will likely disappoint more.
