Limited BMW E92 M3 Carbon Edition Debuts in China

Panda edition, lol. Another lipstick "special" edition.

BTW, for those that asked earlier, Porsche is another abuser of the "special" edition cars, though they seem to have more variants based on performance-oriented modification rather than just cosmetic. I am sure (hope?) the market will soon tire of them.

Composition edition?

IancoleTX · 06-02-2011, 11:35 PM

The "buy it, you idiots" edition. Weak.

The M3 will have more special editions than the Mustang at this rate

Yep, it comes with an entry level college writing assigment. You must show ample skill in order to get the car.

Better get used to it.

$189,000 and no Premium Sound. Wow.

They turned around and offered it elsewhere...making our special edition...not so special. Heck, I wanna say you could get it in the UK, long before our special edition.
If I remember right...they even offered the black 359M wheels, standard, on the Frozen Grey special edition...I want to say in Netherlands. Which is a lot more "special", if you're like me, and have been trying unsuccessfully trying to order them through BMW.

Sure, but all of these special editions are just combinations of Individual and BMW performance parts anyway. Technically, any of them could be recreated by anyone who wants to fork out enough dough to BMW (assuming you can get them approved, of course). In other words, none of thse SE offerings features any exclusive parts, and all the special colors and such are just the work of BMW Individual.
