Searched around on here a bit but this is the first I have seen from BMW Motorsport on a coupe not a hatchback. Its a gorgeous car

Anyone know if we can get the parts off these cars? I wouldn't mind ordering that body kit.

Anyway, its the first I've seen of the coupe, if anyone has more pics of it post them up, it was the only I could find.

Wow. Nice find!

deamon32 · 05-15-2009, 02:30 AM

awesome, I need this in high res! Would make a nice wallpaper

jox · 05-15-2009, 03:13 AM

Here you go: http://www.rem-power.de/bilder_2008.htm

It appears to be a 135d(!) with 408hp/800nm...

I know it doesn't mean a great deal, but it has Diesel powered on the front valance, might just be sponcership, nice photo though.

Endre · 05-15-2009, 03:28 AM

It is Diesel powered.

Now that's one darn good looking car! Good find!!

Mark M · 05-15-2009, 09:29 AM

Nice....I kinda like.....just not a fan of the 'Running Boards'.

Wish they could have gave it a cleaner more 'finished' look. Take a look at the Rahal Letterman ALMS M3. That car is dead sexy! Or even think back to the E30 M3 race cars, they were hot!! Where as the above 1er still looks a bit incomplete. Needs some finishing touches to give it that sexy look.

I don't think this is a BMW Motorsport car, maybe a private team?

My135 · 05-15-2009, 10:58 AM

I like the rear wide body. It made the car looks whole lot more aggressive.

I think it may be a private team as well. But it is under the car list on BMW motorsports web page, so im assuming they at least built it? Pretty cool non the less.

I understand your point but I don't think race teams have looks in mind when designing these kits. They flow from wind tunnel data, not the consumer market.

With that said, this thing looks like a little bull dog. I'd love to get my hands behind the wheel.

ssabripo · 05-15-2009, 01:46 PM

it's a private car from rem-power...it's a diesel car.

xbook · 05-15-2009, 02:13 PM

Great find

JimBeemer · 05-15-2009, 02:28 PM

I like the tape over the tow-hook hole. Gonna do that my 135 :-)

135forthewin · 05-15-2009, 02:35 PM

They did the mesh-style DIY mod on the stock non-functional diffuser LOL.

ptack · 05-15-2009, 03:43 PM

I don't like the running boards. I think the car would look way better without them.

Ron@Modbargains · 05-15-2009, 03:50 PM

Styling wise the 'running boards' and the hideous difuser (with the wimpy exhaust) and the attached spoiler to the bumper look ridiculous. But I was always looking to see how a wide body 135 would look. I am sure it's a beat out there

Sedan_Clan · 05-15-2009, 04:30 PM

Love it!

emm3tt · 05-15-2009, 04:34 PM

Very awkward looking. ///runs and hides

DTR · 05-15-2009, 04:47 PM

now i hope people realize that the runningboards and the spoiler all serve a purpose for the car and what they're doing. i dont think they were fully focusing on the asthetics or how pretty it would look.
