E92 M3 4-door

[Erick]

That offset is sick, but the fitment is off.

Either way, I'm against the idea of 4dr M3s. Hated them on e36s and dont like them any better now. It's an ///M, symbolizing a sports car. Who the hell puts 4 doors in a sports car?

What about the ///M5?

[Avus E30]

The m5 is the worlds best saloon. I just think the m3 should be the best coupe. I mean since the 3 series ballooned to its current proportions its still a huge fucking 2dr. and josh your opinion is wrong :)

[sweetride01]

Yeah fucking right. I love it when e30 owners say that they would rather have their car than a brand new 420hp v8 m3.

Yes and no...
M3 is almost guaranteed to be a great car, always. But, E30s really are a joy to drive (well, when everything is still working, anyways).

My dad has a new E90 330i sedan... but would I take it over my E30 if given the choice? Probably not. But over a stock run-of-the-mill e30 325i? Sure.

The E90 is a great car, with awesome handling dynamics. But, it's not customized the way I like it, like my E30 is. Give me 10 grand, and I'd give the E90 an LSD, louder exhaust, and make sure it has the 6-spd and sport pkg. Then, it's a nice car.
Now, the E92 335i, that's really awesome, especially in blue and loaded with every option...


But in direct answer to your statement, I would be hard-pressed to turn-up a new M3, coupe or sedan.

Subaru and Mitsubishi. ;-)

As for a four door M3, I couldn't possibly care less. It's cute that everyone is that opinionated about it, though.

What about the ///M5?

That's perfectly fine for its size/class IMO. It's not a REAL REAL sports car... I've driven one and it's amazing... loved every second of it, but it's no race car. An M3 should have more of that race car feel to it tho.

E90=Sedan
E91=Station wagon
E92=Coupe
E93=Convertible

Just FYI.

quote=89isluv;805272]I see 4 tailpipes. Are we sure that isnt an M3? Looks pretty nice to me either way....

WTF are you talking about? Did you even read the title of the thread?


Damn man, take a valium or something... I still say its an M3

LOL

Yeah fucking right. I love it when e30 owners say that they would rather have their car than a brand new 420hp v8 m3.

I would still take my/another good e30. Mine needs a motor, tranny, driveline and diff swap.

I don't care for the new M3. *yawn* sweet engine, but I don't want it. Playtoy, yes, would probably sell it in exchange for an S50 or something.

I'd rather take my current tired e30 rather than that M3. ANY DAY, rain or shine, sleepy or wide awake, hungry or full of food, tired or fresher than a new lettuce thing.

I don't want a single new car past the E38 end years. All pieces of ****. Boring. "well what if we (BMW) gave you the first M3 four door?" You'll find it up on eBay that night.

That was by far the most narrow-minded post I have ever seen on this forum. The newer BMWs are far from boring, but to each his/her own.

[smonkbmw]

the original m3 was a 2dr 5spd. i still cant believe they made a vert out of it....but they did...fine. but currently i think a 4dr is way far from the original concept. not a 5spd? meh, advances in technology.fine. but when they came out with the m3 as a 4spd and a auto in the e36 it automatically became my most disliked car ever. same goes for the vert automatic. i believe that BMW should go back to its roots with the m3. a basic sports coupe, no smg, no traction control, no idrive. modest power, light weight and handle like no other, thats the way a m3 should be.

and no i dont like the new 4dr m3, its a waste and another step away from the original concept of the m3 (to stay on topic, sorry josh)

I sort of agree with this. The M3 is supposed to be a driver's car, a driving funster. Not massaged with electronics like iDrive, ESC, DSC, etc. No automatics, ABS is fine, on-board computers are fine, but it's supposed to be like it's roots: E30 ///M3. The M3 is supposed to be a revered car, an icon. And the ///M5 is supposed to be it's four-door equivalent, the ///M6 its bigger cousin with more power and gizmos.

Well. What am I supposed to do when I think they all look TERRIBLE? Technology galore, yes. But when they stop looking like BMWs are supposed to look like, what should I do? I can't embrace a car I think is ugly.

They look like this piece of trash Solara:


Just UGLY pieces of crap.

[Raxe]

If they continued to style BMW's like they used to 15 years ago they'd be like GM.

[boom-monkey]

I agree with Josh. I think the sedan just looks better, and wouldn't mind at all if it came with an M badge.

[e30lyf]

i think 2dr & 4dr M3 are both nice. the main thing is if you have $$$$$ to pay for it. that will be sweet.
