    The Singer-esque E30 M3

    So, looks like the M3 will be getting the same treatment as the Jaguar E-Type (Eagle Speedster), the 911 (Singer) and Jensen Interceptor (Interceptor R)

    Cool, cool stuff.

    Sketches look pretty lame. But it will be interesting.

        It should be great. Turbo S14 powered, 300bhp per ton. The guy has hired quite a few professionals to get it done, it's not a home build by any means. Definitely going to take a few years to finish the first one.

          The sketches make no sense though, singer keeps whats good about the body lines of the 911 and adds to it, this just looks weird with the curved edges on bumpers, the diffuser instead of normal rear valance. I dont know just doesnt seem quality.

            the bumper are kind of.....not appealing.

              Lol, from the sketches the bumpers look like Alex Mc Henry, chinamike/karl troy's car (maybe it's all the same car) which was done several years ago. Like a combination of the CDOC and Hamann bumpers.

                  What the builder of this car is forgetting is the greatest M3 was already made...

                      I can't believe the negative reaction to a carbon fiber bodied turbo S14 powered E30 M3..

                        You can put all the fancy material-ed parts in the world on a car, But if its not designed well no one will care.

                          This. I want an M3 that is pure, and 'Turbo' and 'Pure' for me do not go together.

                          Of course, I want an E30 M3 with an S54, so what do I know?!

                              Ehhhh not sure how excited I am. Plenty of 'restomod' E30 M3s exist already. This one just has some famous names attached to it.
