2011 BMW 328 Hommage

View attachment 139136

3 litre twin-turbo straight six
305bhp-320bhp (going by the Z4 35i/35is)
780kg/1720lbs
Front engine, rear drive.

Concept car inspired by the original 328 and based on the second generation Z4 (E89). Uses a lot of carbon fibre and other weight saving tech.
:yuck:
 
But seriously, the cool wall rules say that modified cars can't be polled, and I believe that that should extend to saying that the photograph used of the car must be of the car in stock form, without aftermarket wheels or a bodykit fitted.

Anyway, using a picture of a modified vehicle gives said vehicle an unfair run, positively or negatively influencing voters view of the vehicle in an anomalous manner.
 
Are you really nitpicking over a couple inches and a set of wheels?
 
Not being European, I didn't even know. I thought it was just a sports version (and probably would have called it cool on looks alone). So, thanks.

You'd be surprised how much of a difference a couple of inches makes. (This applies to everything, and I mean everything.)

A set of wheels though...
 
Ah. Well I wouldn't know, 4 pots aren't my forte lol.
 
Please stop. My intelligence circuits appear to be melting.

And on the topic of nominations, since this is a nominations thread:

Pontiac Mera
this nomination contains almost none of the required information. You'll need to edit it to meet the conditions before it's considered.
 
Then stop saying stupid things about stuff you don't know. Please. It gets old after a while.
That's how you learn.
 
No dude, no. you learn soaking in information about stuff you don't know, not saying stuff about it. It's the other way around. and if you're gonna say something about it, make it in the form of a question, not an absurd remark.
Perhaps I should have done that, but what's done is done and the important thing is that I learned something new 👍
 
well, that's a good way of seeing it, at least.
