Some people dislike the looks of coupes (me included). So this makes sense even if he has removed the functionality of having back seats...

So much hate in this thread lol. Even if I had a sedan people would never sit in the back so its a moot point arguing about the cage. Who cares guys, it looks amazing and the guy put his heart and soul in the project. Keep it up Felix.

I think it is a great job on the build...for all the peeps who are hating on it, it's no big deal...let them think what they want. The OP wanted to do something different, in HIS own taste and design, supported and helped by IND, and he got what he wanted...that is the bottom line...like it, hate it, love it...he doesn't care! It is his car.
Powerbeast...well done, well played, keep it up. M

But, rather than polite dissent and discussion, I suspect the majority of posts addressing my point will be just saying that I'm "wrong," or a "hater," or whatever. Without pointing fingers or trying to start any fights, I've noticed that a large number of posters on here seem to be quite immature - I still don't understand how so many of them manage to afford vehicles that are well outside the grasp of the general public.

Let's just applaud his efforts on creating such a unique M3.
I think it is pointless to bring up subjective matters in this thread especially pertaining to cost and practicality. The is the OP's expression of what he wants the car to be, period.

Hate is me saying "This car is shit, looks like shit, performs like shit, and it sucks". That is hate. Critique is me saying that "Yes, the car looks beautiful, however, the modifications done (mostly the cage) has ruined the purpose of a sport sedan. Putting 'motorsport designed' mirrors on a street car is asinine and only contributes to the look of the car, not the function." That is critique. This car belongs in a Fast & Furious movie. It plays on the appeal of having the unrealistic and impracticable 'street race car'. Think about it like this, an M3 sedan -roughly $60k, these mods and labor -estimate $50k give or take... now you're in $110k for a picture car that you cant street race or track race. Personally, I would've picked up an R8 for that price, but that's just me. |

Does anyone know why this yellow is called Dakar? I'm just curious because I am from a city called Dakar.

Powerbeast, you make my car look like sh*t. Damn you!@
It is crazy beautiful what you did. That has gotta be a keeper. Put it in a museum.
