A classic example of how to turn a nice car into a ricer. I'm sure it's nice performance-wise.

if it's functional, it's not rice. nothing wrong with adapting technologies from race cars for street use. in this case, the rear vent cools the rear brakes, and im sure the spoiler makes the car more stable with the added power.

Other than the ugly bodykit I fail to see how it became a ricer.

ricer and a half

part of what makes the M3 and M5 so cool is they are kinda sleeper cars. Granted they have some exterior clues, but they dont stand out like some ricey POS

An ugly bodykit and oversized rims is all it takes.

That looks ugly :(.

The M5 looks ugly/ good at the same time. Dam the new styling just plain looks TERRIBLE compared to the older E46.

The charm of the E46 M3 and M5 is that they look passive aggressive. They look aggressive without them screaming look at me! The R34 and the STi have the loud styling but they are different cars for different people.

All fast as f0ck but they do it in different ways :thumbsup:

latest M3 and M5 stand out quite alot, to me anyway, but then i guess i know what im looking for. the new M5 definately makes sure you know its a M5. the wheels, the pipes, the slightly more agro look, the engine note, and not to mention a very good amount of M power badgery


best sleeper car in my mind.........E39 BMW 540i

not quite an M5, but almost as quick, and the best part is, no body would know

The front end is not TOO bad, but the side skirts and fenders are miles behind enemy lines in the battle against hideosity.
