I agree, the guy evidently has vision impairment as I see no "3" by the motor sport ///M logo on the fender. Just as NISMO has parts for various types of Nissan's BMW also has ///M parts for their various models. I see more people on here slapping on a NISMO intake or shifter kit and putting NISMO badges on each window. That to me is pretty gosh darn ricey.

But don't sweat it, that black E46 looks pretty darn good to me! And I love the ///M fenders!

Ahmad, NC here too. And welcome to my350z. There is a ton of knowledge here and you will be able to learn a lot about your new Z.

Semen, do you really think you belong in a conversation about the authenticity of car parts?

Personally I had an 07 mustang and totally hated after 1 week of driving it and keeped it for 2 years, then i finally got an 05 Z and totally love it, it was like night and day, in my opinion american cars handling is awful. The Z is worth every penny no matter what model you get.

I bridged a friend over to the import side a couple of years back. He was an avid Mustang character. But then he drove my M3 and decided that a little plush and up to date is worth a bit more than brute power and loud pipes.

Agree, the reason the domestic market is where it is today is exactly such. The quality of the product and lack of sustenance. (lets not include the C6 Z06 or ZR1, those are quite the contrary)

I AM A HUGE LOTUS FAN! You should have gone with a lotus, big mistake. IMO you can't get any better than a 30k elise. Looks, power, handling, and reliability. Not to mention you feel like you are in a race car. Lotus FTW! BTW that is my next car, hopefully I can get one within a year.

My bad homeslice, I thought you were claiming to have an M3 from dutch's post. However, I still don't think you should have the m3 vents on the front panel, that screams poseur. Car looks good beside that.

Who cares though. I know if he rolled up along side of me it isn't an M3 regardless of what he has done. Less he went a step further in swapping engines to where i would only find out in a friendly match.

Don't be fooled though that the M3 is the superior bmw by far. The 330ci will give an M3 a big time work out just to pull away by a minimal amount.
Actually it's no where near the same comparison. A nismo Z (07-08) has the same HR engine with a different front and rear bumper. This guy is trying to pass off his 2.5 liter inline 6 as a 3.2L 330 bhp car. My 328Ci is has more hp/tq.

Kid?? you really have no clue what you tried to make you E46 appear to be. You put M3 fenders on a car that was NOT a M3. You tried to put a M3 exhaust on a E46 that was NOT a M3. How do you not understand how much of a poser you turned your car into?

Wrong numnuts. You have M3 fenders and you tried to emulate a M3 true dual exhaust, and your front bumper is a replica of a M3. So why don't you have the 325Ci badge? You obviously were trying to pass off your E46 as something it wasn't.

Isn't this the guy that put Volk stickers on his rota wheels? Yeah great backing there. Posers supporting posers on the next Jerry Springer.

who cares? my guess is that 90% of the population doesn't even know what an M3 is... to most people, its just another beamer.

I wouldn't personally make this kind of change to my car, but who cares if somebody else does? why get so angry? how does it hurt you? its just a matter of taste, no need to be a hater
