*** Detroit Auto Show Pics ***

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:23 AM

I've seen an touched the new M3, and it is good. Its going to take me a while to get these all posted. I tried to go the extra mile and get some pics of the whole display. I hope maybe I can help you feel as if you were there. I also have lots of M3 pics, both E90 and E92.

Ok here we go.

Approaching the BMW display

Cool! Bring 'em on! Thanks mkoesel!

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:24 AM

Off to the left is Audi

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:26 AM

And Mercedes

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:28 AM

And to the right is Lamborghini

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:29 AM

Hello there, won't you smile?

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:30 AM

Ok, close enough

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:33 AM

A nice Montego E92 335i with 179s caught my eye

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:35 AM

But we are here for the M3. Once I saw it, I ran over and jumped into the driver's seat. And notice, when no options are equipped that require the dash buttons, the buttons are not there at all.

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:38 AM

Can't wait to fire one of these up and row through the gears

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:42 AM

I am in the E90 by the way. Black leather with, I believe, the standard brushed aluminum trim (forgot the name).

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:44 AM

Inside the trunk

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:47 AM

A ski pass-through. Our 335i does not have this, and I'm not sure why.

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:48 AM

A place for tools (removed for the show, no doubt). We don't have this in the 335i either.

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:51 AM

The Mobility Kit. Hadn't seen any pics of this anywhere, so I snapped a few. Sorry for the poor quality, I was holding the lid with one hand.

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:56 AM

Not sure what this is. In my E46 the CD changer wiring is in this general area, so it could be that.

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 12:59 AM

Ski pass-through removed. You can see all the way to the dash. Also some with the seats folded down.

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 01:02 AM

You're probably really bored now, so how bout a couple exterior shots? With everything open.

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 01:07 AM

The now infamous reflectors. What I was trying to do here is show that there are indeed cutouts in the bumper to hold these (it was hard to capture, and I know these pics kinda suck). So no simple peel off.

I wanted badly to pull one out for a better look but I think the watchful BMW boothies would have called security.

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 01:09 AM

A 220M

mkoesel · 01-17-2008, 01:11 AM

The S65 is begging to be brought to life

CSL-Fanatik · 01-17-2008, 01:13 AM

Thank you for all the great pics.

The reflectors are disappointing, but I love the black Novillo Extended leather:
what a car!!
