German tuner Bremgo has took a BMW 335i, slapped on some M3 lookalike parts on it and shoehorned the huge 5.0 litre V10 from the BMW M5 into the coupe’s engine bay. They used the SMG drivetrain instead of the manual transmission. This is effectively the first SMG-equipped 3 Coupe to be running around until the M DCT-equipped BMW M3 is launched sometime next year. Other than the body parts and engine swap, the car also receives a artge perforated leather steering wheel, AC Schnitzer 5-spoke alloy wheels.
Bremgo has stuffed the M5′s V10 into other cars before, including an E46 M3 CSL. In this particular application they tuned up the M5′s engine to 550 PS, so you can expect this E92′s M5 motor to have similiar specs. They have also played with diesel abit, stuffing the 330d’s turbodiesel into the M3 Cabriolet, effectively taming it down a little and making it a nice fuel efficient small GT of sorts.

Sweet! but I find the lower part of the front bumper a bit weird…the rims are something else though
Sweet…BTW are those 20″ rims ?
an ultimate dream 3 series!!!
nice!!!
Black better still…
nice…but i’d still pick hartge H1…5.0 V8 in a 1 series!
So if you’ve got a heavy front end wouldn’t you need a proper wing at the back or some sort of aerodynamics?
A monster
Wah, big rims complete the eye candy effect. 1 thing though, I dont like the exhaust tip. Kinda sticks out too much.
If I see this car in my rear-view mirror, i might just crap in my pants….totally awesome!
dats ganas…

HEY!! This not 335i anymore~ This is 350I M Sport~
Well, anyway, the coupe looks quite nice~
Maybe a good opponent of the CLK63 AMG
the is by far coolest ..M5 in a 3 series. what is the top speed then?
look at the size of the brake disk.. and i think the front is overwieght ? like a fat man sitting in it.. wonder how does it sounds..
Beautiful is an understatement.
