Not at all like BMWs style.
Hope you find it tomorrow and clear this up.

+1.
This car is probably sooped up by a wannabe for appearances only and they couldn't afford it and its now going to auction. The first M3s will not be transported on open trucks with used cars.

Looks to me like a modded 335 that someone put quad exhaust on, wrapped the roof and put an aftermarkert exhaust and rear bumper on it. That being said it looks really good an I can't wait to see the real thing with the double bubble roof and the flared out fenders and wider wheels and tires. Very excited.

Also as a point of comparison looks how much farther outthe quad pipes are in the posted pic vs this one. Its just a modded 335. That being said looks pretty good i just wish people wouldnt badge somethign like that as something its not because it kind of ruins it in my opinion.

I do not think that is an M3 or even a vehicle belonging to BMW North America.

I am quite sure a new BMW yet unseen would travel in an open transporter at this stage. We have enclosed trucks for this sort of thing. And it would certainly not share with Fords and other domestic vehicles.

It has silver mirrors like an M performance model. Could this be the M335i???

Agreed, someone just put nice wheels on a 335i, wrapped the roof and cut the bumper so they could put quad exhaust on it.

It's a F30 335i. Good clone though.

If your referring to the truck in the photo, it's a Dodge.

matbl · 07-19-2013, 01:04 PM

I might be totally wrong but to me it looks like a E90 (LCI) M3.

FrozenM3nace · 07-20-2013, 04:42 PM

We're the arches wider than a normal 3 series? If yes then it probably is the new F80 M3 I just hope that's not the rear diffuser!

reg 3 series. bmw would never let a fully exposed f80 m3 be on a random truck with other used non bmws.

JC919 · 07-31-2013, 09:53 AM

You are joking right? Maybe this is the new M4? Yas Marina Blue?

ixse · 07-31-2013, 10:31 AM

Bmw would never put dark badge like that. Those are def ebay m3 badge.

We don't even need to get into the exhaust, tires, (wrap? not carbon fiber) roof, and that "M" logo.

Not a bad looking modded car though, minus the logo.

robolop · 08-03-2013, 01:07 PM

So wrong

bavarian19 · 08-03-2013, 01:58 PM

m3 exhaust tips are much closer together than those pictures. Without question, poorly modded 335.
