Only cause there's a monstrous V8 underneath.

what? no fog lamps?

I like it but it seems lacking for some reason - or maybe they were aiming for simplicity.

Trpltrbl · 03-06-2007, 01:12 PM

looks nice, gotta admit that.
S5 -- M3, who is gonna take my money ?

Not even a thought, the M3 why the hell would I want a nose heavy AWD that only has 350hp and that my 335i can already take on?? and even if the 335 lost probably be marginal and with my procede by summer time good bye S5 rubbish

Autobot · 03-06-2007, 01:50 PM

OK now all it needs is a set of LUX 2.0's and it will be complete...

AMB · 03-06-2007, 02:01 PM

Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

do-do-do doo doo dooo!

I like the wide stance, the side profile, and the CF roof. But the rest is just Way-Over-The-Top. Is this a Skyline GT or a BMW? It'll probably grow on me, but I prefer the more subtle/clean M Sport kit front and rear bumpers over these plastic grill adorned rice treats.

...but i digress.

Fully agree..............................overkill in design, to Japanese, no more low profile............................

Hunter399 · 03-06-2007, 02:15 PM

Looks great

But the hood buldge is way too big

Hopefully they will tone it down a bit before production

ase2dais · 03-06-2007, 02:17 PM

no its just perfect!

Darn it. Seeing those pics makes me like it.

Disregard everything I said previously.

Likewise. Can I take back all the criticism? There's no way it won't turn heads on the road ... no way. If the looks don't catch your eye, it will when it blasts by.

SamBoler · 03-06-2007, 07:32 PM

amazing, quite simply

Skelzy · 03-06-2007, 08:23 PM

I like it.... Needs some type of a rear diffuser (CSL Bootlid style) to give more beef and size to the rear like our E46 M3's. It seems to thin and slim at the rear. The rest is not bad and in that car in Black that could be a little Bat-mobielish......

Artz 330 · 03-06-2007, 08:45 PM

I just showed my girly cause when she saw the first PS's of the M3 they looked nice and she wanted one...
