The Original BMW M Coupe

[speedminded]

...or would have been if it was ever built! Concept photoshop of an e30 M3 with M coupe styling inspired by the infamous Group B rally cars equals an e30 M Shoe:

I kinda like it...but it looks weird to me with the back short like that....its almost like it got cut off or something.

Speaking of performance tires, I drove my brand new '06 STI(68 miles on odo) 75 miles in the snow on RE070s!!!:eek: I thought I was a goner, but somehow I managed to keep it in the road...even though I kept it at 20mph.:lmfao:

Yeah, I'm pretty sure BMW produced this in the E36 chasis... it was called the Ti and it failed miserably. No doubt that the E30 M boxed flares add a touch more character to it, but it just isn't hat great looking to me.

Yeah, the E36 Ti wasn't such a looker.

[SouthrnStyle]

I hate it, reminds me of a 318

[Captain-Obvious™]

They forgot to shop snow onto the front tire.

[SandM]

weren't you debating on building one of these??

No doubt that the E30 M boxed flares add a touch more character to it, but it just isn't hat great looking to me.The 318ti was more feminine than a Miata and was never available with a S50/52 or any other M3 parts...unless you count the one M3 compact that was built. The clubsport and sport models didn't help it much either.

The only 318ti I would own is the one Azevedo built: wide body turbo making nearly 600hp but it's still barely more aggressive looking than a C320 Kompressor hatchback.

They forgot to shop snow onto the front tire.I did the photoshop and nothing but the rear of the car was changed lol


weren't you debating on building one of these??Yep, spent the last year collecting all the M3 parts to do the conversion and have everything to do the 24v swap too...but now I'm buying an e30 M3 to do it with :ninja:

Scirocco esque, not their greatest, even from a appreciation standpoint.

As one of the biggest BMW fans on this site, I hate to say I would not want to see someone butcher an e30 m3 into that hatchback thing. I think I'd rather see an e30 m3 truck :)

Very cool concept however.

[wwli]

sup with everyone hating on 19"s??

I seen the 318M in the rally videos, they call it the Compact M3.

That rallymedia.nl as some incredible footage! http://www.youtube.com/user/rallymedia

19's suck on the street because of pot holes and road plates and nobody wants to pay for 19" r-compounds/slicks on the track just to burn through them. But if someone has the money then go for it!

[wwli]

I actually prefer the look of the 19"s but yeah the tires do suck for they do cost more however I being riding on 19"s for a long ass time and the 17" tires for the Z wasn't cheap either before it was bent of cause.

I am the only Dee Dee Dee that is rolling on 19"s in the EK hatch but hey for every man his own....right..lol

That rallymedia.nl is awesome especially when you watch it in HD mode.
