Reminds me of a batmobile from the old batman movies. Looks kinda of cool in funky way....

Glassy · 12-02-2008, 04:42 PM

negatory.

KonigsTiger · 12-02-2008, 05:28 PM

Not too shabby, don´t know about the rear fenders though.

watrob · 12-02-2008, 08:25 PM

I could live with that in my garage!

panthrax · 12-03-2008, 12:28 AM

showgirl's just like the car, chunky, meaty and a bit frizzy in places.. not my cup of tea.. color's nice tho..

GnokGnik · 12-03-2008, 04:10 AM

It comes down to whether you have the balls to drive a thing that looks as aggressive/crazy as that.

Defiantly not a car for people who appreciate "sleepers."

Looks good, not worth it, wouldn't drive a client in it, would drive down pch with it.

I love the exhaust cut down from 4 to 2 big ones, but don't like them being centered.

thetastelingers · 12-03-2008, 08:13 AM

I really like everything about the car....well....the wheels im not decided on, but the hood, bumpers, interior.....ahhhh.....

KonigsTiger · 12-03-2008, 10:28 AM

Haven´t read all the thread, is there anything that was done to the engine? Car certainly looks the part!! But does it walk the walk?

If I may...

It has nothing to do with balls, it's all in taste.

Also, in no shape or form is an M3 a 'sleeper'.

As far as I know from reading different articles there is no engine upgrade yet!

Hmmm!! Too bad, again, I think I love almost every part other than the rear fenders that look a tad too big for this car and do not flow with the lines. The front end does look nicely integrated as does the rear apron with the twin tailpipes. Wheels, can easily change that for something more to one´s taste. A stoker kit would have been great.

EZ_TUR90 · 12-03-2008, 04:12 PM

i think it looks cool, the front headlights look sharper!

d3l0n · 12-03-2008, 10:41 PM

kiddo · 12-04-2008, 08:59 PM

THE INTERIOR IS PRICELESS. This is the exact thought I had in my head. Executed perfectly. WoW Forget the car I don't really mind it would defiantly rock it but the interior is great it really is.

haen · 12-08-2008, 11:38 PM

This car looks like a cartoon version of the regular M3. Does anyone know what they did to the car in terms of actual performance? I'm more interested in going fast as opposed to simply looking fast.

adc · 12-09-2008, 05:48 PM

Some of these modifications seem to point to extensive aero work: the F1 style lower front wing and elongated nose, the rear diffuser (with exhaust pulled inboard to clean the airflow), the alleged cooling CF blades on the wheels.

If that is the case and it's more of a case of form follows function, then it's absolutely incredible. If it's all show and no go, then it would be ridiculous.

Generally speaking, most of the aftermarket aero bumpers, sideskirts and assorted stick-on wings/spoilers are complete rubbish, they have no aerodynamic function whatsoever. But every now and then someone comes along who makes things that actually work. I'm very curious if this is one of those cases, or not.
