I want an m button

Can we fashion this onto 335s modded w jb4s or cobbs? That would be the illest. So sick it\'d need antibiotics and shiz. Like amp/gent, gents.

What about a map change?

By some electrical adjustable shocks and springs... and voila....

I wonder if we could get some
Programmers to change function of some of the stock buttons on the nav... I hardly use any of them. Or the music station memory buttons. Or my seat memory.

You mean a button for reducing the power and torque to M-levels ?

If I had an M, it would be the first button I press after starting the car. Just saying.

No point in having a button. Whatever mode it induces should always be active.

I wish we could change that stupid steering wheel button that changes inside / outside air into something that both disables your traction, sets the most aggressive maps you have and puts your tranny into sport mode (although that is not possible without moving the actual shifter as opposed to an M3).

I want one that can control an exhaust flap, from quiet and muffled, to bypassed and loud.

No offense at all... Modding is a question of personal preference... but I've never liked something that has characteristics of something else, leading whatever other entity to believe that it's something it's not.

Similar mindsets to that (IMHO):

- fake Louis vuitton luggage/purses/anything
- michael Jackson trying to be white
- front M3 fender grilles on a car that isn't M
- pleather
- a majority of people who wear tapout

I could go on with this list... But my humble opinion should be clear with the tapout or LV examples. Unfortunately, lots of people don't mind it...

In my opinion, there shouldn't even be a button on the M3. It should telepathically know that you're a sadistic son of a bitch and employ everything possible to keep it's ass in line.

Haha-

Not to spoil anyone's parade of shit on my post- but, this isn't to emulate the M. Just want the capacity to map switch on the fly using buttons that are otherwise rendered useless on a daily basis. Don't see how that makes me a poser. Won't catch me sporting a swatch and calling it a tag. But... Might catch me with your girl and be calling her my bitch. Haha. Tapout. Good call.

tunes already do that, if thats your "m" button I have about 60 of them, If you didnt really want a "M" button...your thread title probably shouldnt be " I want an M button" for some reason that leads everyone that reads the post to assume that you want a "M" button, probably because your title says " I want an "M" button"

For some this is doable indeed. You can add extra buttons under the climate control switches, between the heated seats buttons. Obviously, this depends on what options your car came with and it will require wiring, but generally, this should work.
