Animated Comparison between M3/M4 and 3/4 Series M Sport

richb811 · 03-19-2014, 11:51 AM

Fantastic animation! All of a sudden I have an itch to buy an M3 in Singapore Grey!

Saphirschwarz · 03-21-2014, 04:19 AM

i'm a coupe guy but shit that M3 is hot !

jballs16 · 03-23-2014, 04:48 PM

I'm amazed at how much detail BMW put into the M3's bodywork. Look at the small flare on the rear 1/4 panel, above the taillight (top-right edge). It's much more pronounced and matches the seam of the trunk perfectly. That, coupled with the elongated horizontal line, going towards the rear pillar, makes the entire panel a complete, custom, work of art.

Nowhere as great as OP's..

But someone wanted to see the diff between an e46 Ci M Sport and the e46 M3, so just put this quickly together

The Evolution...

From the Ci M Sport, e46 M3, M3 CSL, M3 V8, M3 Turbo 6

Still buying an m4 and happy to do so. Looks beautiful and in person it's just going to look amazing I'm sure everyone in their 4 series m sports will break
Neck at the m4s...... "Awwww maybe I can still trade it in and get an m4...."

I'm sure they will too, if they notice it.

AnywAys just having a bit of fun seeing as there is barely any new info out and my car is still probably months alway from being built :/...

Now THIS is cool !!

ChrisMT79 · 04-20-2014, 08:05 PM

I realize there is nothing proprietary or really special done, but this is quite possibly the single most useful and best idea I have seen in comparing models to date, from any board I have ever referenced. I would bet you have helped a number of decisions be made (including myself). Brilliant idea and thank you.

Impossible to choose between M3 and M4. Glad I need 4 doors or I would never be able to make up my mind.

I had to do a double-take when my friend sent me this from cars and coffee in Alpharetta, GA.

Audio Fan · 06-03-2014, 10:57 PM

That's beautiful.

ChrisMT79 · 06-04-2014, 10:46 AM

Yes, its amazing how the culmination of parts/lines etc... all contribute to exude completely different characters, yet both look great in each their own respects.
