Whose crimson red 135i is this

bimmerboy · 07-26-2010, 05:17 PM

this is probably 99% similar to what the 1M will look like... and it looks amazing!

It was in Canada when I bought my 2008.

onefastman · 07-26-2010, 08:02 PM

I want the widebody kit

ptack · 07-26-2010, 08:11 PM

Probably would cost a fortune, especially to ship to the US. Remember, those rear quarter panels are about 8' long. If this is what the 1M will look like (minus the hood) and it has the cajones to match, I'm trading up - depreciation be damned.
Imagine it with a set of HRE P40s.

Not every country gets a standard moon roof.

The moonroof is optional in Europe.

FB = Wetteraukreis, Friedberg, Germany. You are correct Sylon in that its North of Frankfurt. It is in Hessen.

The black logo on the right rear trunk lid is from Doerr Motorsports.

The M3 wheels must be 19"s not 18"s.

The rear lic plate frame is from:

Autohaus Dörr+Hess BMW
Raun 97-99
63667 Nidda

http://auto.webauto.de/nidda/autohaus-hess/de

So... anyone know anything else? It is safe to say this guy got quite a bunch of euros tied up in his bad a$$ ride.

BrokenVert · 07-27-2010, 06:18 PM

^why must those wheels be 19"? They are the standard 18" wheel from the M3

the 19" are an added cost option

That hood alone is 990euro, + 19% VAT, + shipping!

Without shipping, that equates to $1530 and its not even CF, and the CSL-style trunk lid they sell is even more expensive!

And guys, you dont even want to know how much that widebody kit costs, roughly $6100

Ohh really? I thought all M3's came with 19's. ??? I just looked on the BMW website and your correct indeed. That would make for one cool upgrade on our 1-er's.

But the off sets have to be mega wrong for our cars. ?

Dackelone · 07-27-2010, 07:42 PM

You know what else looks realy wierd about this car.... The headlights look to be US spec lights bc the inner lights look like the opec-like US units. The euro lights have a clear lens and are not opec like this car has. But this car doesn't have any orange corners!?!?!?

My135 · 07-27-2010, 08:54 PM

Nice looking car, but I would rather saving the mod $ for a real 1M.

I believe the word you are looking for is opaque.

And it could be the way the light from the sky is hitting it. Looks like it was a cloudy/overcast day, so it might be clear, the light coming off of it is just blown out.

Thsnks Sylon, yes that is the word. I have become too Germanized and forgotten my English words. lol

So... the M3's come standard with 18's. I looked on RealOEM and found the wheel specs:

M Double Soke wheels #219

8.5jx18 ET29
9.5jx18 ET23

Do you guys really think these wheels would fit on a 135i without any clearence problems???

I will most likely have these on my car in a few weeks

: trying to find a set.

Dackelone · 07-28-2010, 02:56 PM

Welll YES, keep us all posted! But will they FIT without any trouble/rubbing!?!?!?

Sylon · 07-28-2010, 03:43 PM

I dont think they will fit, we need a much higher offset. With those wheel sizes we would need something around the ET45-50 range.

Yes... that was what I was thinking too. Wrong offsets.

But then, there is that red 135i with the M3 wheels on it!!

So... we know it is possible but we just don't know HOW?

Are you sure they are not replicas with a custom offset?

The guy spent close to $10,000 on bodywork so Im pretty sure he can afford a custom set of wheels.
