La Auto Show 2008 M3

Drive_right · 11-23-2007, 11:38 PM

I went to the LA Auto Show today and took a few pictures of the new M3 with my small Digital.

damn, looking at all the M3 pics, i'm so tempted to wait for the car and not go for E92 335i like i have originally planned.

if you could afford it i'd say go for it. only couple more months to go.

The Amber Reflector is exaggerated so much more than the non-M E92...

Totally destroyed the front of the car.

Yup, exactly what I was thinking. But look at it this way, LongTran will probably have replacement painted reflectors available for pre-order long before anyone picks up their M3. No excuse for anyone to have those reflectors on their car more than a day or two at the most!!!

I wish blackline tails were standard on the M3... to give it more of that Euro look.

lkn · 11-24-2007, 03:57 AM

for a second there i thought all those pictures were pictures of the M3 coupe.

AcmeExplosives · 11-24-2007, 05:18 AM

I think it looks great. It sounds throaty as hell too.

The coupe looks awesome. Sedan looks a bit "crunched" up.

Dude...I really think these reflectors are just placed onto the bumper. Meaning...if you get them off, no hole there. I could not get close enough to tell for sure, but it is not like the reflectors on the e92 that are slotted and placed flush with the bumper. These literatlly look just glued on top. I think that you get them off without damaging the bumper....no need for color replacements. Easy fix.

In what way?

Alex@Helix · 11-24-2007, 01:21 PM

It may just be the angle of the picture, but the tips on the sedan look closer together then the coupe

the rear bumpers are very different between the sedan and coupe
