    Certainly looks that way!  How could neither the garage or the owner notice that!!!  Must handle rather interestingly...

    Looks like the front and rear wheels have been switched ...

    indeed shifting is ancient technology - so is a fuel burning engine..  I happen to like both :)

    In Australia, that would be called a 'ute'

     I hope somebody stopped this guy...I suppose his dealership messed up things because I can't believe that any M3 owner would be that stupid. Smiley

     you'd be amazed at the uncanny amount of posers that own M3s just for the name, yet know nothing about the car and have no special passion for it.

    Also a perfectly good explanation would be that his is a 328 with the full M3 kit and the owner is even more stupid than we think Smiley

     even worse - it looks only the right side of the car has switched tyres the left rear wheel seems to be wider than the right one

    You maybe right Enmanuel. These pictures are sent to me 2 days ago by my friend. Check the pictures:

    This car is a 320ci w/auto tranny.

     See what I mean. 

    And I just want to say, I have nothing against people making their cars look better by adding M components, maybe you love the M3 but cant afford it. But I have a problem with people that put the M3 badge on the cars, come on lets be realistic you're just setting yourself up for embarrassment when people notice its obviously not an M3

    You must be wrong: You can clearly see the wheels are right on. And no safety issues to be seen, the car has a perfect and safe stand :-)
