With all due respect, this thread has been going ages and I'm usually one to give the benefit of the doubt. However, in this case I'm inclined to not believe that such a model exists. pics and dyno's etc. have apparently been promised but nothing produced.

Anyway, go on prove us wrong, but we're not holding our breath.

I will try to get pictures, BUT I cannot remember EVER promising a dyno chart other than the one that I have been told is a fake!

I have had some contact with some chaps at BMW, and am happy with the information they have given me, and I no longer have that much interest in proving/disproving to anyone, I will try to get some pictures to stop the p!ss taking, but in the grand scheme of things, it is not on the list of my (or his) priorities!

Rest assured IF i get some pics, I will update this thread - having people revive it will not make me do it any faster!

This thread is really funny, if I was TonyFlow I'd be aching to put all the guys who posted sarcastic comments noses out of joint. I have to agree with Dracoro in that I am having alot of dificulty believin this car actually exists

This isn't gonna make Tony find out the truth any quicker but I'd like to think I kept the thread alive in the vain hope, one day the truth will be known.

Go on Tony.....DONT PUT IT ON THE BACKBURNER......prove the people wrong...... onder2:

Has yours?)

Surely, the above modifications to your spec would easy see the additional 70bhp needed to take it to the spec as shown! If they had the know how to do it for their racing GT cars - then perhaps some specials were made to order using this know how?
Totally agree those sort of modifications could see 70bhp gains. Just because no one has heard of it doesn't mean it does not exist.

More importantly how does it drive - with that much power is it still the linear power delivery of a normal M3 evo or has it got a kick at certain rpm ?

Don't you just hate when you have papers to prove the engine and just because a google search doesn't show up any information it must be false and you are a liar - how dare you share this great find! A limited edition bmw m3 :@) Next time try and post your find on a car forum that is not full of doubting losers !

Hello matey - hows things?
You still got the same email/moby no.!

Oops - better watch out, people will think I have called in people to back me up (oo-err)!

The bloke is on holiday 'till next week so will see if its possible to get some pics then!

Like fabioso says, I would love to prove the validity of the car, but the owner couldn't give a **** if people believe it or not, he has had the papers from a BMW dealer, so he is happy with its validity! Even if I had conclusive proof, I would still be doubted

As mentioned, on speaking to a chap at BMW Frankfurt, I am happy with his reply, and no longer feel as if I NEED to prove anything

I have sent a text message to your old number if not I'm still with steria mate so mail is the same.

Just pm the pics to me mate - no need to prove anything to this board or the "M Power board" Just keep them wondering..... The amount of cr8p you get with each post is unbelievable !

I've still got the GT4 and she's still under full warranty with Toyota so I have still resisted any mods - can't see many standard UK ones around for sale so perhaps that's a good thing.

I take it you've uprated to some Spec C or type 25 by now or is old beast just as fast ? did the Mrs get the turbo MR2 ?

Send me mail mate
