    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.

    You're the guy that called up Top Gear and pointed out Clarkson's white line crossing aren't you...

    To quote our most valuable member; "it was not my fault."
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    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.

    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.

    Please don't tell me what to do.

    it could be a 320is
    or a 325i m-pack
    or a 316i with an m-pack and a turbo
    or....it could even be a 1.8t swap with an m-pack...
