Compounding my sins is that the front bumper cover is the European and not the North American version...no side reflectors, another thing that bothered me aesthetically.

Haha, I noticed quite some non stock items, e.g. wheels and brakes. But you did not debadge the "M3" from the rear - I thought SFers avoid logos at all cost - joking

Me, too, but LAX gives you an automatic fix-it ticket if you don't have a front plate, which is why I keep something like this around:

Sorry, beautiful car, but the E92 looks better. Does seem to be very color dependent though.

Love the more aggressive lines.

I just zip-tie it to the front grill... 5 minutes to put on and 5 minutes to take off without any drilling or damage to the car.

By aggressive you mean disjointed?

The E36 is prettier than both.

I love the M3. It's as 007 you can get.

I'd rather have an S5, those LED headlights are too nice!

I picked up a sedan recently, I would recommend it as a fast and competent DD that you can take to the track once in awhile. i went with the MT6, and with a couple of minor modifications to the clutch it works very well. Not the lightest car, but overall i am quite pleased with the handling and the EDC.

Sorry detouring your thread - for a similar amount of $, have you given thought to the GT-R?

I loved the GT-R until I found out you can only launch that car 37 times then you need motor/****** overhaul.
Go drive an IS-F

It's no E30.


For the stylish man, an E91 with an S65 swap and appropriate suspension is the clear choice.

Haha, talking about God's chariot there, are we? Of course, everyone knows the Beast, aka E39 M5, rules them all.

I would say, aestheticaly, E36 is as ugly as the E92. E46 is better than the two

E30 trumps all 3. But I'm a 1990 type of fellow.

E30, E46 very close. E36, E9x far behind. The just-intro'ed E89 Z4 looks great, though. It's the first car in years from BMW that makes a great first impression.

This man speaks the truth, and this is coming from an e46 m3er.

All bangled bmws are garbage, loyalists hate them and fanboys love the vulgar styling which is the antithesis of historical bmw philosophy.
