    this is too true...bmw's drivetrain/suspension/chassis isnt the best...althought their inline 6 engines like S52 are very high performing engines...but bmw is still not the best, my 240 is better

    obviously this poster does not have sufficient knowledge about BMW's.
    SMG, ZF/5-6 link indp. supension (even rear)/ unibody design of high strength steel. BMW is light years away in design, technology, and innovation. Please don't make such a broad general statement and not back it up.

    As surprising as it sounds BMW has been copied dozens of times in their designs and functions.


    S52 high performing? No...

    Csl bumper ($500) From where? Ebay... Cause no respecting vendor sells that hideous thing.
    99 Nose panel ($75) Ok... You got that from Strictly German?
    Kidneys($75) 75 dollars? Holy shit... I got 55 for my Hamann Blacked Out Ones.
    Angel eye projectors ($350) How long have you been in BMW community... Angel Eyes were in thing 2 years ago. And you got ripped off...
    eyebrows ($50) Again... You got ripped hardcore
    Euro tail lights ($125) You can get a complete set for that price off Bimmerforums if you look.
    Clr corners (30)
    Shaved badges
    Custom anthracite paint mix ($2,000) Cool
    tint ($200) Tints = Cool


    Chassis, etc.:

    Turner motorsports chassis plates ($1,500) 1500??? This product does not exist... provide link... I think you meant this? http://www.turnermotorsport.com/html..._ID=4111225649
    Upgraded shock tower mounts ($300) Rears? My full race mounts are 100 dollars....
    Upgraded subframe mounts and bushings (600) Hmmm Powerflex sells subframe bushing set(The brand that EVERYONE runs) for 200 dollars...
    Coil over suspension ($1,100) Brand?
    Dinan strut tower brace ($475) Hmmm you paid 75 over retail? I have this bar... I only paid 399.
    Dinan shock tower brace ($475) Rear? It retails for 299. That is what I paid... GEEZ you got ripped off!
    Crossdrilled brakes ($500) Rotors? Pads too? Have fun with those when they crack at the track
    18" Axis supermesh wheels ($1,600) They retail online for 285 a piece in 18s
    Toyo tires ($800) Wow sweet... are they run flat?


    Engine/performance:

    Dinan cold air intake ($475) Wrong - I own this - 399
    Dinan high flow throttle body ($550) Wrong - I own this - HAH 299
    Dinan stg. 3 software ($390) Wrong - I own this - Stage 1 is 299 and each stage after is 100 dollars. So your software if you have it would be 499.
    Polished chrome race headers ($600) Hah... yah ebay knockoff ones or the shitty jet hot shorty headers!
    ///M3 exhaust ($400) OEM? They sell for 150 plus shipping all day long on bimmerforums and weigh a ton... B&B Tri-Flo is only 698 and weighs 1/2 and cost only 300 more than you paid... Seems with all your cash you would have made a better choice.
    ///M3 fuel pump ($100) And you did this for what reason?
    UUC evo 3 shifter ($350) First price that is correct...
    Sachs clutch kit ($450) Got ripped here too... roflmao






    Best post ever... I cannot believe I am owning a BMW owner... You are a terrible driver... I guarantee it... Put your money where your mouth is... Road Atlanta... I'll be there at all the BMW drivers school...


    1 last thing... somewhere I saw you claimed 250hp.... HAHAHAHHAHAAHHA roflmao
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    S52 has 240hp at the crank stock... your m50 Non-Vanos is 189hp stock on a good day man... Your mods have added 10hp if you are LUCKY!!! Learn your BMWs man...

    Can I get a "Pwned"?

    it just doesn't look factory. You can see there is nothing behind it so it looks like a cheap body kit, aka... Euro Rice.

    Maybe if it had foglights in the side holes and a splashguard under the bumper it would look a little better but I still think the actual design of the bumper isn't bad.
