BMW E30 + E46 + E60 = ?!

Advertisement

e30_346_e60.jpg

This little Frankenstein of a BMW started off as a normal 4-door BMW E30 3-Series Sedan. Apparently the owner has decided to keep up with the times, somehow he managed to show-horn something that looks like a Z3 mixed with an E46 front end onto the front of the car. He also decided to bring the car a class above, so an E60 lookalike rear is slapped on. What do you think?

    Awful! I really hope this is photoshop’d and not for real. What a cruel thing to do to a car, let alone a BMW. The thing of motorcar design nightmares.

    what an abomination. let’s hope it really is a photoshop job and that some idiot really didn’t waste good money making that monster for real or that maker should be jailed and whipped for bad taste.

    E30+E46+E60=E136

    E136 no door handles….
    so minus 1 = E135

    how the heck is the owner gonna open the door?/
    there are no door handles at all. OMG!

    + tail lights looks too big and doesnt blend in well with the body…

    Looks like some serious incest happened in the BMW family. The owner probably thought, what could be better than a sporty front, elegant body and luxurious butt? Haha, anyway, the car just doesn’t look right.

    The car actually gives me the same impression like when I see Sunnys and Sagas with Evo bumper or the sort.

    Maybe the doors can be opened by remote control. Saw this concept used in Pimp My Ride before… Actually, it may look weird but I really don’t mind driving it… One of the funkiest Bimmers I’ve seen…

    Nice? no….
    Creative? 100% !!!

    The car owner must be a BMW super fan……

    I saw a standard Honda NSX converted to a Ferrari F50, not long ago. That was creative too!! But too bad not in our country……

    Malaysians are also “experts” at converting their cars, like Wira to Evo, Perdana to Skyline, Kancil to Mini Cooper.

    E30+E46+E60= ULB

    What is ULB? => UGLY LOOKING BMW.

    What do I think? Please don’t ever Try doing this. Send it to KEDAI POTONG lah.
    Original looks is the best, don’t modify by yourself. Please, please …….pleasex 100.

    mitlanevo:

    Could the NSX you were talking about be the NSX that was done by Veilside? It looked remarkably similar to the Ferrari F50 and it was yellow in color.

    Lol, if DTG was right about the doors that were opened via remote control the owner would have a big headache trying to pry the door open if the batteries in his remote control went flat.

  20. cbljkkj said,

    March 17, 2007 @ 7:46 pm

    I think the only part on this entire car that actually looked genuine was the Sport 3 Series Coupe/M3 bumper. Everything else looked fabricated. Wouldn’t mind nicking the bumper hehehe.

  22. mitlanevo said,

    to cbljkkj:

    no, the NSX was red colour before converted to a black F50.
    It is not “remarkably similar”, it looks like the real F50!!!!!
    But of course the original shape and lines of NSX is still there even though they added the widebodykits, rims, headlights, Ferrari badge and rear wing.

    I saw it on a website, but can’t remember what was the webpage….

    there’s no way the pics is photoshopped…

    i’ve done many superimpose images, it is just plain stupid to say that the pics are computer altered images…

    about the door handles…

    mind the ppl who still lives in the 80’s or 90’s, or, basically who lives in pethatic malaysian automotive world, the doors will pop out with the touch of a button on the remote…simple mechatronics of today’s engineering..

    haven’t seen any in Pimp My Ride huh? there’s so many applied there…

    Those are not chopped images. The mods on the door handle is actually a very popular mod in US in their never ending pursuit of un-riceness = clean look. It’s called Door Handle Shaving. This is a pic of the kits that are installed to use a remote and to bump the door open as if our remote controlled boot.
