whatdyatink? ///M3 badges

[mazdamazda]

i've noticed that medyo dumadami ang mga 3 series (lalo na mga e46) na may ///M3 na badges...

what's your take on this?

btw, have you guys seen the red M3 from the ADB? ganda sobra ng mags! :D

[OTEP]

mazdamazda,

For me, ///M badges are ok esp. kung may ///M stuff naman ang sasakyan mo like interior bits, wheels, etc.

Pero yung ///M3 badge tapos hindi naman ///M3 medyo overkill na yata.

European Rice Badge?

[theveed]

parang german version of being ricey... 4 door E46 M3... comon... E36 at least meron... pero iba ang bumpers, skirts, exhaust, side mirror, etc... yung E46 naman aluminum ang hood, 18" wheels, brembo ata brakes, iba yung side grille, iba yung trunk at side mirrors, quad exhaust, etc etc...


pero oto naman nila yun eh... hehe...

I want an M5 though...

:shock:

Sana ilabas na yung 6 series... it's been a looong time... I love the old one...




The M635CSi is just a dream!!! 453cc DOHC I6 efi, 286 bhp, 158 mph

This is the "upcoming" model if they choose to release it... Looks kinda "pontiac-ky" without the chrome trimmings... hehe





Offered initially as a coupe, with a convertible to follow a year later, the new 6 will keep weight down through extensive use of aluminum body panels. Three different engines are predicted for the standard model: a 3.0-liter 230-horsepower straight six, a 3.6-liter 272 hp V8 and a 4.5-liter 333 hp V8. Transmissions will be either the six-speed automatic recently introduced in the new 7 Series or the six-speed sequential-shift manual from the current M3. Shortly after the launch of the cabriolet, BMW's Motorsport division will launch the M6, reportedly powered by an all-new 5.5-liter 550hp V10. The new coupe is expected to debut at the 2003 Geneva Auto Show in March.

rice... not any different than putting Type R and mugen badges to stock Civics...

[e46boi]

rice, most definitely!

[1.8T]

wag nalang.

[empy]

one of my pet peeves :x

why try to be something you're not? :roll:

[mazdamazda]

for me, dapat kung bits and pieces lang rin d pa rin ///M badging...

as bmw puts it, even the X5 4.6i didn't get an ///M badging (even if it has enough punch to it) as that badging requires a high revving engine...

[kiper]

hmm..

ano ba ung original na type-r?

sa skul kanina may nakita ako blue civic type-r..

hehe..

pormadong-pormado..

mags, body kit with all the badges,

may r-project sticker pa sa likod..

now that's ricey..

hehe..:mrgreen:

[theveed]

ang alam ko black, white and red lang ang kulay ng type R...

[A-Boy]

pano kung ang 318i naka badge na 325i? pero naka clear corners, fogs, and mags na pang 325 talaga, and also chrome kidney grill? trying hard ba sobra? ganon kasi oto ng dad ko eh.:|

[mbt]

A-Boy,

in my opinion (you don't have to take it personally ok? ), what makes a 325i a 325i is the 6-cyl engine, not the cosmetics

[A-Boy]

yeah it's alright dude. pero nagwowonder lang ako kung ano ang sinasabi ng mga tao if they realize that the car is a fake.

hehe, parang medyo nahihiya na ako.:roll:

[OTEP]

A-Boy,

Just remove the badge. Ok lang naman yung trim, eh. Malay ba natin, pinapaganda mo lang. Pero yung sinungaling na badge nakakainis talaga, eh. IMHO lang po.

[splerdu]

theveed,

that "upcoming m6" looks terrible! pontiac na pontiac... the chris bangle fiasco continues... :cry:

[mbt]

splerdu,

hehe well if it's any consolation, pontiac copied BMW in the first place :lol:... but i agree, these bangle designs are so ugly. the traditional BMW styling was timeless and attractive, but the new 7-series, Z4, and the other upcoming designs are bad to say the least

[kiper]

hmm..

bigyan ka ng z4..

panget pa ba..?

:twisted:

[mbt]

kiper18,

syempre naman ok lang... pero ibebenta ko yun kaagad tapos papalitan ko ng Boxster :mrgreen:

[A-Boy]

thanx for being frank dudes...
