I have one for my M4, so I can only assume they also have them in the M3 for 18

Not really, the '18 M3 are not officially available yet. Yes you can order the car, my car is in manufacturing, but you can not go on the BMW website and build one yet.. The '18 M4 is officially available.

The 18 M4 is still not officially available in Canada according to the website either. But, mine is ordered and delivered so not sure if you can go by the web site's Build&Price tool. You might be right, but who knows.

If you have an iPhone and a VIN, download the BMW Driver's Guide from iTunes, enter the last 7 of your VIN and enjoy.

Have you given it a try? If you have your VIN (or a VIN from any other 2018 M3), it should be easy to try it out.

You can also create a MyBMW account and get it there with your VIN.

Manual available on My BMW..

I used my VIN to search the manual for my car and it is now there. I don't know if it is the manual reflects 2018 updates. It is an interactive manual so it can not be downloaded as a PDF.

My 2018 M4 is currently in production. I have its VIN. '18 M4s are being delivered now and they obviously come with owner's manuals, however an online manual is not available for my VIN on either the BMW Driver's Guide app or BMW's online owner's manual download page.
