Whats going on to e9x cars these days?

[littlejohno]

Wow that's a lot money spent I didn't realise that M3 bonnets were so cheap

[IanS100]

I had a look at the second one & to put your mind at rest:

Returns: 14 days refund, buyer pays return postage

I wonder how many stamps I'll need

But seriously, there has to be a catch, those prices can't be serious?

DRLs are looking so sexy! (NOT)

(Did anybody spot the girl in third photo and dog in next photo?)

Well I have also placed my bid. Lets see who wins it




Funny that last one is genuine M3 but details given are immense!

[E92Dan]

Can't see the problem

[Sparky68]

E90s dropping into chav affordability, it happens. Broke my heart when i spotted more and more E30s on the roads around here.Mine was mint but they were turning up chavved to the hilt.

Apart from the dodgy spelling, what's wrong with the last one? I'm a little tipsy, so excuse my lack of attention.

As for the rest, I'm really not a fan of people tarting their cars to look like something that it is not. It seems most are done as they've crashed the standard car.

This is how I feel tbh.

- ' Bmw M3' as a title. No MY, no
E90.
- Not mentioned about previous owners
- Not mentioned about service history
- Few photos
Seems like no effort has been put into advertising it

People put more effort when they are advertising 335i.

+1

But it doesn't take away the fact they are still good cars, and I enjoy mine as much now as the day I bought it

All cars go through the chav phase, but it will pass, these days when I see a clean E46 330 or M3 it really does turn my head....where as a few years ago every other E46 I saw was running some kind of cheap alloys and body kit.

[JulesM]

I want an M3 style bonnet!

[E90325iM-SPORT]

Looks like chavs started buying and modify them. Pure cars.....

['V']

What's wrong with modifying them? Granted the ones in this thread look like poo but modified cars can look stunning if done tastefully. There are several on these very forums - hopefully I'll be following suit soon.

The e9x series are a very good looking set of cars and will be bought by idiots when cheap enough I don't think it makes them any less desirable to people who know about them (ie) kind of people on here.

I'm on my 3rd e92 and love it, have loved them all (apart from the 320i, stupid engine).
Everyone has different ideas of what looks good which kinda makes modifying fun. If you see a poorly modified e9x pass you, just give a little shake of the head and drive on

The whole point is that it is happening now
E9x prices are dropping and with that chavs are doing all those chavy modifications (except white 325i E92). It does not make your car less desirable but you think.....Shall I move on if my bmw is like another clio / corsa?

Hence I started looking F series. Test drove F10 320d. I was not convinced that there was more space in the cabin and moving from 330d to 320d was not convincing. Boot space was merely any bigger that E91 with no folding seats.....

Anyway back to the topic, it really disappoints me when;
-E9x cars are modified poorly!
-E9x owers is running fog lights when there is no fog!

[marknjayne]

we do have some snobbery and elitism on here dont we

[dy63]

its there car i dont see the problem. not everyone can modify there car the way others can using genuine parts and top notch jobs. some of you bare that in mind.

[E90325iM-SPORT]

Makkan look at rear wheels on that white 325 does it look right ? Am I blind or it has a se gear knob? if can't afford to buy m3 , please don't make 320d "look like" m car.

[E90325iM-SPORT]

And white "m3" is on 04 plate

['V']

I agree with makk on the fog light issue.
Turn the f*****g things off until it's foggy
