July 15th POTD

Has anyone else noticed that today's POTD is not an M3? The M3 has squared off arches and a different front bumper aswell as quite a few other things. Who fell for the old trick of a 318i plastered with M badges then?

No because although each evolution and variant had slightly different front bumpers they all still had those squared off arches.

Rotfl! Nice one.

I see the licence plate... it's from over here, it isn't strange, a lot of Bemmers have the M logo, just not the M3 logo, it's an equipment upgrade.

Since it's from Portugal couldn't it be one of the special 320is that they sold there (and I think that in Italy too) instead of the M3?

It could, but i'm ignorant regarding that...,
what i can tell you is that even diesel BMWs can show up with the M, for me it's like having a Guia logo, it's really just equiment like spoilers, bumper, gear lever, stearing wheels and probably some upgrades on the suspension.

No(r)way.
I am sorry if the title confused you. I can edit that.
Try to concentrate on the great capture! It is in fact a member of this forums who have taken the photo.
