OT: BMW M3 UTE....

jcw2006aus · 12-04-2008, 04:17 AM

Hi guys....not sure if you have seen this looks like a custom job done in oz!

Interesting......

smarm · 12-04-2008, 04:20 AM

It's stuart appleyby's from memory.

Taken a few years to get to that stage!

Caduceus · 12-04-2008, 04:21 AM

It belongs to golfer Stuart Appleby.

And I believe it's an M5, not an M3.

jcw2006aus · 12-04-2008, 04:36 AM

I stand corrected it was an m5.....

WAY · 12-04-2008, 04:41 AM

I believe Andrew supplied his exhaust?

andrew@southernBM · 12-04-2008, 04:50 AM

Yes i did supply a rear muffler for the M5, a Kelleners muffler.

Check out the links page on m5 ute website.....RH Lower corner

Carlos · 12-04-2008, 05:42 AM

I would like to see a road test of the BM against the Ford and the Holden

Zuzu · 12-04-2008, 05:43 AM

Love it..

cozza · 12-04-2008, 05:46 AM

Crazy idea, dunno what I think of "Australianising" the 5er.

Breville · 12-04-2008, 05:48 AM

There was a doco on TV re this some time back. Very cool.

amk2912 · 12-04-2008, 08:33 AM

Personally I think it's sad.

05C4R · 12-04-2008, 04:41 PM

Hey it's a link to your website! Haha.
I love the concept btw. I reckon it would be so cool if you have a dirt bike or go-kart. What better way of carrying your wares!

d3syd · 12-04-2008, 10:22 PM

Zuzu · 12-04-2008, 10:34 PM

Sorry...couldnt resist..

Breville · 12-04-2008, 10:42 PM

I like it cos it's different.

MatthewDFW · 12-05-2008, 12:04 AM

Shit hot front but odd rear. Bavarian El Camino.

professor · 12-05-2008, 01:54 AM

hmmm....not my cup of tea. its a western-version ricer; a bratwurst. but i agree that its a gorgeous bratwurst. and he's got the money to do it so i say let him do it. after all its to him what a jumbuck is to most, so more power to people like him who have the guts to do what they desire.

Alpine* · 12-05-2008, 03:29 AM

An awsome car to trailer the 1 to the track with...

(also an interesting way of reducing the cars weight)
