Re: Re: Can you pimp in a M Coupe?

Easy, buddy. Why you gotta hate on my peoples? I think both our cars are pretty fugly. Just kidding. Convertibles by virtue of the fact that they are convertibles, naturally attract attention. So, being a fugly convertible has to mean extra attention!

I will say that when I first saw the Coupe in magazines, I didn't like it.

But seeing in real life & 3D well it's totally takes peope's breath away. The roadster, I think are for the limp wristed or females.

With all due respect to the e36 &e46, there are just too many & no matter how much you trick it out, it's just wearing a different cap.

Here's a little secret: in 2 years you can probably get a 315 HP- e46 M3 engined Coupe for <$30K & it's built like a rock! Unless you guys bid up the prices!

Pimp factor: I was @ the gym last night & a grade 10+ hottie that I thought never even noticed me came up & just stared @ it & ask for a ride. Shit like that never happens to me! Until the Batmobile came into my life!

When I cruised my Imola Red E46 M3 for the first time I was shocked at all the attention it got, well not really once I had seen the car in person. This one girl who loves my M3 hates the M Coupe. The M Coupe is the best Bimmer ever made though, so fuck the pimping and drive.

Besides, by the way that your girlfriend looks (from past threads) I see she's overlooked the fact that you're a roadie!

Heh heh

Well TOO MANY PEOPLE HAVE M3s. As I said before, more exclusivity is a good thing. Everyday I see at least 3-4 E36 M3s (E46 M3 is a different story). If I buy, I would buy a used M Coupe. I like the M3 and I wouldn't mind having one but if I have the money to choose, I will go for something more different.
Something different and looking at a BMW? Bad place to start for exclusiveness, I would look at Audui S4's, RX-7's, CL/TL Type S or even an S2000. M3's here are a dime a dozen, there is even one in the student parking lot '95 M3 lightweight, awesome cars,but common. It could just be where I live though.
-Peace

I don't think there is a BMW I'd rather have than an M coupe. They are the meanest looking/handling car out there. Come on, is there another car out there that's even similar to the M coupe? I sure as hell have never seen one.

I pulled up right next to a Dakar yellow M coupe in Beverly Hills about a couple weeks ago. The guy hauled ass off, and I followed him all the way back to his house! HAHA. I would have gotten pics of our dakar's together but he was foreign and, quite possibly, wondering why I was at his house.

Get the coupe.

Peace.

It's quick & precise!

Yup, I've heard many stories of people snapping into a 180 without even going especially hard. Also their suspension is pretty crude, but somehow they get it go so far.

BTW, if anyone sees an M Coupe in the mid-twenites or lower, contact me please, any year is fine.

Well, I can get you a ride in one...

But I'd definately have to hold out for *certain* favours....

Besides the fact that I'd be robbing the cradle on that deal....sigh...

Anyhow, I was under the impression that BMW was cancelling the M Coupe over the next 2 years, and if so, that's going to drive the resale price UP, rather than down.

Given the choice, I'd rather have the M Coupe than the M Roadster, although I must admit than when I first saw the M Coupe, I thought it was a little on the F*Ugly side...
