Pic: Alpine White M3 in the flesh

paulyd · 04-28-2007, 05:57 PM

First raw, unprofessional, real-life pic I have seen, thought it was worthy...
from our friends at m3forum, during the M tour.

looks munnnnnn!

surprised how much the rims look the same as the e46 19's...

NaViT · 04-28-2007, 06:01 PM

wow.... where can i get those wheels?

monsta · 04-28-2007, 06:04 PM

you know what I love most about this pic... Is that the window's don't have that nasty chrome trim that I hate so much...

esquire · 04-28-2007, 06:20 PM

car looks good. that rear-spoiling is looking better an better.

Epacy · 04-28-2007, 06:26 PM

Nice. First real shot of the 19s as well. And yes, they look way too familiar to the E46 M3 rims. CSL rims anyone?
The 18s are a joke in styling.

paulyd · 04-28-2007, 06:52 PM

yeah i'm obsessed with the CSL's... wish they were an option

Manz_UK · 04-28-2007, 06:56 PM

the e46 19 was 1 of the best wheel designs ever..
im glad they didnt change it much

Hans Delbruck · 04-28-2007, 07:14 PM

Nice find!!!

The car looks good. Those wheels look "heavy"... like the E46's IMO, never really liked the E46 M3's wheels....

The CSL · 04-28-2007, 08:11 PM

CSL wheels have just GOT to be an option some time in the cars life. If not, these 19s sure are nice. The 18s have probably been ruined to make people spend more upgrading - a typical BMW trait, imho.

aerisolphaln · 04-28-2007, 08:42 PM

How about 15 more picutres from the OP with all different angles?!?!

+1, those wheels look so much like the E46 wheels (which I dont really like...) but with CSLs I'm sure it would look good....

aerisolphaln · 04-29-2007, 06:56 AM

Oh my GOSH I am just DYING with anticipation to see more real life pictures of this car. I'm planning on Alpine white with 19's and I'm loving what I'm seeing so far.

PLEASE POST MORE!!!! FEED THE NEED!!!!

Nice.........looks like they are polished just like the 19's from the E46...

But..... the rear wheel doesn't seem to have enough concavity to it...

The rims look great. I'm mostly impressed though with the high quality of the seats. they look spectacular.

also, notice the two piece center arm-rest.
