The m-sports usually cost around $4500 with the exterior mods as well as interior.

^Ouch! But cheaper factory ordered than OEM aftermarket I suppose. And it won't make my car any faster. Now what else would $4500 buy me????

hold on buddy i haven't ordered my car yet. Im waiting to see the actual m-sports bodykit on a car in dealership first so i can put down my deposit. Ive been told by dealers that it should take a couple of months to get one in so im hoping there estimates are correct.

If i like the kit i'll order the car with my specs being:
Blk saphire/ Saddle Brown int/ Walnut trim/ Logic7's/ sunroof/ M-sports kit

Chris.G · 03-07-2007, 01:26 AM

yeah i saw the pics as well

Looks hot! I hope the concept is exactly same as real production version.

astra · 03-07-2007, 02:49 AM

doubt it will be... it looks like it is in csl spec

Chris.G · 03-07-2007, 02:51 AM

Nevertheless it looks hot, and i must say the csl's suite the car so well.

astra · 03-07-2007, 02:54 AM

well yeh.... cf roof, hotter wheels, that funky steering wheel and kick ass interior trim etc... HOT

Chris.G · 03-07-2007, 02:55 AM

oh yeah that steering wheel with suade was HOT. Its just really classy look.

astra · 03-07-2007, 02:57 AM

BMW //MPOWER · 03-07-2007, 03:13 AM

My take on it is that the exterior is the FINAL M3, except maybe the wheels (but i'd be more than happy for these to be the production rims because i LOVE 'em, i only say that 'cos they're the E46 M3 CSL rims).
I think the Carbon Fibre roof and lack of fog lights is going to be a new permanent feature of the M3 in line with the M5 (no foggies) and M6 (no foggies and CF roof) as the M models are constantly evolving.
The interior... I'm not sure it's finished.....Because the gear level is to be honest average (mine is better, will post pics later) the steering wheel is an optional one (or CSL) and is not like the leather M stitched one's we've seen on the mules.
To top it off there is no mention of the SMG/DSG gearbox, hence the manual to keep everyone guessing...
Either way i want one...
I'm in love!!
And don't care what anyone else says about the car as it is the most beautiful thing i've ever seen!

BMW //MPOWER · 03-09-2007, 11:48 PM

Me & one of my mates were bored today so we went down the Alto BMW in Artarmon and test drove the 335i (yes i've already test drove one before.... but) this time it was a manual, instead of the auto! And i'll be, Oh boy! The manual just add's so much more to that car, i thought auto performance was great last time, if anything a little polished... but the manual had that bit of brute to it, was that little bit quicker and more response to the kick in the guts! I don't know how i'll ever be able to buy an auto.....
