Even with those carbon ceramic brakes?!

It's not like BMW can even salvage a single part for future use.

Of course I understand, but I just wish they could have given one to me!

People were saying these were sheep 335i's with the M badging, but one look at engine bay is all you need to see they're the genuine article.

Seriously would be a super cool move if they hocked the parts, but my guess is they'll either go back to BMW for research or be auctioned off to Hollywood car shops for parts/rebuilds/etc. for other movies.

Sure looks like an M motor and engine compartment on this one.

Jezus christ already......we can read, but, we can also SEE the engine is indeed an s55 from an m. I highly doubt they would fake under the hood just for us bimmer freaks. The money is pocket change for these guys.

Unless they've changed main actors. SCCA pro's tried to teach him. The Joke apparently was SCCA = see cruise crash again.

I kid. As actors go, he's pretty good.

I'm sure they went through all of that work to make that engine compartment look like an M3, while just using standard 3 series parts.

They went through the work to make it sound like an M3 in the video too... One, if not most, of them are M3s. You really think they spent the time and effort to save such little money per vehicle? I'm sure the ones that got "more wrecked" were more likely clones. Sounds like hard work to strip a 335 and put in new seats, hood, bumpers... wait, that's like M3 pricing already.

Regardless of who bought the cars, or who placed them for advertising, they were used for a purpose and that was for this movie thats gonna make a ton of money.

I really really hope so. It's just such a waste of resources...

However looking closely at the wrecks, I think they are real M3s.

With so many delayed M3/M4 for lack of CF roofs, seeing all the trashed M's with CF roofs kind of pisses me off.

Excellent product placement from BMW again. Would be interesting to know what happens to the cars afterwards.

Come on.. Is it really that difficult to understand why a forum full of BMW enthusiasts would be upset at the sight of many damaged M3s, particularly those who cannot afford/justify buying one themselves? That is a different matter to saying that they own them so they can do what they want. The two positions are not mutually exclusive.

By extrapolation I'd be very surprised if saying the local vivisection clinic that owns the rabbits and monkeys it tests upon and euthanises appeases those who are upset about it.

I bet BMW dealers will sell those M3s as CPO cars.

if you look at the first pic, the third car on the top row does not have m3 wheels. so most of them are probably shells.
