Crappy marketing for a crappy edition of the M3

aajami · 08-30-2012, 07:29 PM

It looks like the MPE on this car is black, like mine. Interesting.

dwzr · 08-30-2012, 07:43 PM

The M3 Lime Rock Edition with M TwinTurbo V8.

Proof reading fail. lol.

sycd · 08-30-2012, 09:23 PM

"spirit of what M sands for"

These days this seems to be alcantara, and "exclusive" stitching and body colors.

I love the M3 so much, but there is so much marketing bullshit in there I couldn't get myself to watch this video until the end.

People get so irate when there is something they know they cannot acquire.

vasmir · 08-31-2012, 12:00 AM

Haters always gonna hate.

Would be worth it if they included some track time, "Lime Rock Rock Experience," or something like that.
Like a track version of performance delivery.

Boom!

Alumac · 08-31-2012, 02:36 AM

Should have been called Lame Rock. AMIRITE?!?!?!

SleepyE90 · 08-31-2012, 03:55 AM

Straight from the website: (http://www.bmwusa.com/m3limerockpark)

"The signature M 6-speed manual transmission and M TwinTurbo V8 crank out 8,300 RPM and 414 horses through a performance exhaust system, which make this the most aggressive M3 to date. And with a 0-60 time of only 4.5 seconds, the Fire Orange exterior, carbon fiber body kit, and 19-inch ZCP Competition Package wheels will turn heads as quickly as they turn corners."

I guess this just goes to show the incompetence of BMW's marketing crew and just how big of a joke this "special edition" car is.

biglare · 08-31-2012, 10:11 AM

I'm a fan of the color!

Unless they edited the listing what you claim is wrong. Click your own link and read.

He was merely pointing a typo that was obviously inaccurate. It has since been fixed.

Seems right inline with what Matt Russell from BMW says here:
