[Petrucci]

Very nice! You need to throw the OEM clear corners on and get some OZ caps.

[Dvsm50e34]

Sexy, drop it lower, change the headlight corners and your good to go.

Nice car!

[WoLF]

I love the color

[njbmw]

beautiful car.. only thing like others said is the headlight/corner light combo. Everything else looks nice

[mephesto]

I absolutely love the color. What is it called?

[Johal E32]

very nice! Get rid of those front corners ASAP :)

And those tails are sweet, I've seen the exact same ones in person!

[ItsBlack]

My Gawd!...

[FreakSmeey]

Hi, thank you for your postings :)


mephesto: I absolutely love the color. What is it called? The color is called Marrakesh Brown Metallic you can order directly from bmw.


Petrucci: Very nice! You need to throw the OEM clear corners on and get some OZ caps.Mh, I like my front corners a lot. I think it fits well with the car ;) . I have original OZ Caps on my Rims.


Dvsm50e34: Sexy, drop it lower, change the headlight corners and your good to go.When the KW-Suspension must be replaced. Then I'm going to buy a Bilstein B14 kit and drop it lower :D


In the future I'm going to buy an original M3 interior, a steering wheel from Raid HP and let them new covered. I want a color combination like black and brown.

[LexSteele]

That color reminds me of poop. It looks great though!

[Compactive]

Is it just me or is every Euro E36 coupe candy colored on some (sexy but played out) 3 piece rims with the ugly corner indicators?

I think after this one I know longer dig the style, I see it now as kinda the Euro fad... :dunno

I'd like to see something different come out of your bmw-syndikat guys :(

[Volf]

Proper wheel selection young jedi

[VR6T M3]

Germany dudes choose nice color and wheels but strike out with light choices,lights like those make a very nice car look cheap

[mateo m3]

nice ride replace headlights a bit lower and its golden

[GTRSv]

lovin it! :drool:

:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

that's like saying gasoline is played out :rofl

I agree, it looks like a nice car for sure... I'm just not digging a lot of the candy colored paint jobs the Euro guys do on top of the poor choice in lighting, and super low offset 3 piece rims don't save the car IMO.

Now i have a new Coilover Suspension with damper adjustment from AP APX installed.

The new m3 equipment will be installed at the end of the month ;)

I am currently collecting infos about the engine and will grant him a power increase over the winter.

Thx for your comments =)

[TEUTONIC]

Sehr schön das Auto. Respekt:)

[FreakSmeey]

[m44lee]

what route you taking for more power mate?

[FreakSmeey]

thx for comments ;)


what route you taking for more power mate?

the season is over and I start my conversion phase :)


- Install the M3 interior (Nappa black leather with padded front and rear door panels).

Performance upgrade:

- The engine will be replaced with a M52B25 (323i) and gets the following extras. Tezet sports headers, converted Intake from M50B25 (325i) with larger channels.

- Exhaust System: I obstruct racing catalyst from Magnaflow, with 200 cells in conjunction with a double flow Supersprint Race System.

- Transmission: 60% short shift and 3.07 differential.

When everything is ready, it will be individually Matched by SGS-Solutions. Expected performance 197hp - 217hp

I'll post pictures when something new is installed ;)

Timetable:

February 15th, 2012: Engine exhaust system and transmission will be installed.
April 1st, 2012: Driving to SGS-Solutions =).


I will show u a video from a colleague in my neighborhood, with a S52B32 (based on M52B25), M3 headers, M3 catalyst, self-made rear silencer and 262hp.
