Don't get worked up about it. People always joke about nice cars, saying they're overpriced or a waste of money. It's motivated by jealousy.

BMWs are a sweet ride, it's no secret. Some BMW drivers I bet bash Bentley and Aston Martin drivers out of jealousy. Just as some dude in a Ford bashes the BMW driver. Just the cycle of jealousy.

I love Astons but I can't afford them. Also like Maseratis too but Bentleys..just not my bag. I like the sporty but classy look. The M3 is the perfect next one up for me.

LOL, let me break it down for you:

- Angel eyes on a model that never had them OEM
- Huge wing
- It's a four door sedan
- CSL style replica front end on a non M car
- Hood vents
- Viper stripes
- e36 M3 replica wing mirrors
- Headlight "eyebrows"
- Component brand names all in a line

The only non-rice thing about that car is the wheels. They're nice, the rest is pure Basmati.

Agreed. Riced is a word being thrown around way too often. Other than the aluminum spoiler I think that bimmer looks just fine. Personally I like the no sticker look but as long as it's not overdone there really isn't a problem.

I think it looks alright save for the body kit, wing, and front plate. I prefer the standard M3 body trim, clean straight and simple, none of this pretencious bulbous compound curve stuff they doesn't flow with the body lines, especially on a city street car where there is no such thing as "aero" .

where do your carbon fiber valve covers fit in that you had planned?
