Spotted... M Performance parts
Discussion
I was in Glasgow today and saw a great looking Beemer. I thought it looked like an M4 initially... then a fake M4 that still looked good... and then I realised it was a 220d with a lot of M Performance carbon fibre parts added to it including front splitter and side blades. It had a black roof too.
Must have cost a fortune for those parts but it looked fantastic so thumbs up! I'm guessing you can't go wrong with the styling on the original parts compared to some cheap / fake rubbish off eBay.
What do you reckon to this then... win or fail?

Yes it does feel a bit like that... I'd have spent the money on a bigger engine or a used E92 M3.
However, saying that I did have an E90 320d SE 8 years ago. I put an AC Schnitzer bodykit, wheels and springs on it along with a tuning box... so I've been guilty of this sort of thing in the past lol Jonsv8 said:
7s is slow nowadays. Each to their own but I'd pick a sleeper, a car that performs well but doesn't look it, rather than style over substance. Im not knocking, I just think what's important to people over say 30 years old is different to those under 30 (wild stereotypes but roughly true I imagine)
They do both look lovely.. but I think 0-60 in 7 secs is quite "slow" these days. It will attract a lot of attention from the "chavs" who will want a race and who will humiliate it with their tuned Saxos.Anyway, I'm over 40 so not sure which stereotype I'm meant to represent... no pipe and slippers yet but I did buy an orange M6 so maybe that's a stereotype in itself
