mahen_m3 · 12-01-2009, 05:22 PM

- I don't like the blue lights

-Wheels look horrible

- Not feeling it at all

Overall love the color!!!

Mike V8 · 12-01-2009, 07:08 PM

I'd rather have the BT92!

GreenPlease · 12-01-2009, 07:26 PM

I'm also starting to think that's a 335i.

This is clearly the most controversial vehicle we've seen here on the bimmerpost forums.

hmmm, that very well may be a 335 rather than a turbo S65 V8, they already make an almost 500bhp 4.4L stroked conversion of the S65 and reduces weight by about 100lbs for the grand price of $310K!! So I wouldn´t see the point of a turbo V8.

Jonmartin · 12-01-2009, 11:28 PM

It has M3 brakes I still think its an M3.

God I think your right, I would at the very, very least expect that for $310,000 I would get better brakes than the stock M3 set! Wow!!! Unbelievable in my book.

Hahaha!! Given the weight of the Gallardo, you´d be fine with 600bhp to do that, but that amount of power would sure be exciting for your tires. lol!

There are some things I like and dislike about this car. The thing I really like is how the rear wheel wells flare out more then the stock car. That is one area that I am really dissapointed with in regards to the E92 design. The rear wheel wells should have been made to flare out more to make it look a little more agressive. Kind of like how they flare out more on the E46 M3.

ebeem · 12-02-2009, 01:21 PM

it`s based on a 3 series coupe

"Autobild says that it puts out 455 hp with a top speed of 300+ km/h!!

Nothing impossible there... a simple ECU can give you almost 400hp. Ad an intake, upgraded turbos, full exhaust and intercooler and you get your 455 hp.
