It will probably be specced and priced similar to the 2015 model, but have a different paint job.

My buddy has one and it is a pretty nice bike though. I know that the Lynsky split has soured some on them but I still think that they make a quality bike.

How the heck could they have experience with something that hasn't been released?

Well ... have you weighed the 2015 frame? You can't come here and ask for info on a bike which hasn't been released, complain because no one has any, then ask for info on last year's model, and then complain if you don't like what people tell you, unless you don't want any info at all.
If Link0 considers the frame on the 2015 not to be all that great and he tells you ... he is giving you exactly what you asked for.
Elvo above has a similar opinion of the 2015 frame---that though ti is carbon, it is on the heavy side ... And int he the other thread which Elvo linked to, Bikerjulio has the exact same comment. Exactly the kind of info you came here to get, I would think. So if you challenge the people who tell you what you asked for ... well, is there a point to this thread?
Buy it if you like it--when it comes out. But likely it will be a less-than-stellar example and your money could be better spent elsewhere.
Anyway, to me Litespeed did Ti, and beyond that they are just a brand name ... if the name matters buy the bike. If the bike matters, buy something else. There is my input. Take it for what you want to make of it.

I occasionally ride with a guy that has a newer 105 equipped M3 (not sure what year). He likes it a lot. I cant comment on how the bike rides, I have never ridden it because it is way too small for me. Its not the lightest carbon bike for sure. As others have already stated here, your money might be better spent on something else.
