SEE THIS M3 HERE: [ Ссылка ]
WHEN I FIRST SAW A BMW M3 COMPETITION IN METALLIC GREEN, IT WAS PARKED ON THE STREET. I STOPPED AND TOOK SEVERAL EXTRA LOOKS AND A COUPLE OF PICS. IT WAS A GOOD LOOK THAT CAUGHT MY EYE.
WHEN I HAD DISCOVERED THAT 1:18 DIECAST MANUFACTURERS TOP SPEED AND MINI-CHAMPS WERE MAKING MODELS OF THESE I PUT MY ORDER IN. IT IS STILL SOMEWHERE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING MADE AND SHIPPED. I ANTICIPATE ITS ARRIVAL.
IN ANTICIPATION I WANTED TO LOOK UP AND SEE IF I COULD FIND A BMW M3 IN GREEN IN MY AREA, AND THANKFULLY I DID. HERE IT IS. LIKE I MENTIONED THE INTERIOR OF THIS CAR IS VERY DIFFERENT AND NOT WHAT WOULD BE MY CHOICE, BUT I DO SHOW IT NEAR THE END OF THE VIDEO TO AT LEAST GIVE A LOOK. I WOULD PREFER EITHER THE BLACK INTERIOR OF THE KYALAMI ORANGE AND BLACK.
IN SOME WAYS I FEEL LIKE THIS PARTICULAR MODEL FEATURED IN THIS FILM IS TWO DIFFERENT CARS. THE OUTSIDE AND THE INSIDE. I DIDN'T REALLY FEEL LIKE THEY GO TOGETHER, BUT IT WAS REALLY COOL TO SIT INSIDE AND GET A FEEL EXPERIENCE JUST HOW FAR BACK AND LOW THE FRONT SEATS ARE.
WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR BMW M3 COMPETITION IS THE EXTERIOR. I SPENT A LOT OF TIME FILMING AND TAKING PHOTOS. THANKFULLY IT WAS ON ITS OWN WITH NO OTHER CARS TOO CLOSE, BUT THERE WERE A FEW OBSTACLES, A SIGN WITH THE SPECS AND SOME CHAIRS ON THE OTHER SIDE.
BUT LET'S GET TO WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS CAR'S EXTERIOR.
THE FRONT END IS SO BEEFY. THE HOOD HAS SO MANY COOL LINES ON IT AND IT LOOKS SO GOOD IN GREEN. IT IS A FEAST FOR THE EYES. I LOVE THE INDENTATIONS THAT FORM THE HOOD, THOSE LONG U SHAPED INDENTATIONS THAT CULMINATE AT THE FRONT AND BLEND IN SO WELL WITH THE TOP OF THE GRILL. THAT CENTRE LINE INDENTATION LEADS RIGHT TO THE FRONT AND THE BMW SYMBOL. WHAT A FEATURE.
THE HEADLIGHTS LOOK SO AGGRESSIVE AND HAVE THAT NUANCED BLUE HUE TO THEM. THEY LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE A BLACK TRIM OUTLINE THAT GIVE THEM A STAND OUT LOOK. IT REMINDS ME OF THE ALFA ROMEO GIULIA A BIT BUT NOT AS THICK. THE BMW SYMBOL IS JUST AT THE TOP BETWEEN THE TWO GRILL PIECES.
THAT GRILL LOOKS BEASTLY WITH A GOOD AMOUNT OF AIR INTAKE. THE NEW BIGGER BMW GRILL HAS GROWN ON ME. THE BADGE WITH THE BMW COLOURS AND WORD "COMPETITION" IS ON THE RIGHT GRILL 3/4 WAY UP THE GRILL.
THE MOULDING OF THE GREEN PANELS ON THE FRONT ARE SO CURVACEOUS AND CAVERNOUS, NO WORDS TO REALLY DESCRIBE MORE THAN THOSE. BEAUTIFUL. LOVE THAT ART WORK.
THE BLACK INTAKES AND GRILL'S THICK RIBS ARE A GREAT CONTRAST TO THE METALLIC BRIGHTER METALLIC GREEN. THERE IS A LARGE INTAKE ON EITHER SIDE BELOW THE GRILL AND IT HAS A SPLITTER IN THE MIDDLE, ALL IN CARBON FIBRE. I GOT SOME GREAT SHOTS OF THESE IN ONE OF THE FILM SHORTS. THERE IS ALSO A NARROW AIR INTAKE ON EITHER SIDE ALONG THE OUTSIDE EDGE OF THE FRONT PANELLING. A GOOD LOOK.
I MANAGED TO GET SOME COOL CLOSE UP SHOTS OF THOSE AIR INTAKES AND THEY LOOK SO DEEP AND WITH CARBON FIBRE IT LOOKS SO GOOD. THE WHOLE FRONT END FEELS WIDER, WITH WHAT SEEM LIKE FRONT WHEEL WELL COVER EXTENSIONS OUTWARDS TO MAKE THE FRONT LOOK EVEN MORE BEEFY.
THE SIDE PROFILE IS STELLAR. I LOVE THE WHOLE LOOK. THE BODY MOULD IS SO PLEASING TO MY EYE. THE BLACK RIMS IN A SNOWFLAKE SHAPE ARE AN AMAZING PIECE OF ARTWORK IN AND OF THEMSELVES AND I STRUGGLE WITH WORDS TO KNOW HOW TO DESCRIBE THEM OTHER THAN THAT. THE BMW SYMBOL IS IN THE CENTRE. THE ROTORS ARE A SHINY METAL LOOK AND CROSS DRILLED. THE BRAKE CALLIPERS ARE BLACK WITH BMW BADGE COLOURS.
THE M3 BADGE IS ON EITHER SIDE JUST IN FRONT OF THE FRONT DOORS WITH BLACK WING SHAPED INSET WITH TWO HORIZONTAL STABILIZERS ABOVE AND BELOW. A GOOD LOOK AND ACCENT GIVING FURTHER DISTINCTIVE BRANDING OF THIS CAR. THE BLACK SIDE SKIRT ALONG THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR IS A BLACK MOULD AND LOOKS AMAZING.
THE MIRRORS ARE CARBON FIBRE AND APPEAR TO HAVE TWO ATTACHMENTS TO THE CAR, BUT THE TOP ONE ISN'T ATTACHED. IT IS AN EDGEY LOOK.
I LOVE THE WAY THAT THE FRONT SPLITTER WRAPS AROUND TO THE SIDE AND GOES ALONG THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR. THE BACK CARBON FIBRE MOULDING ALSO WRAPS AROUND THE SIDE OF THE CAR BEHIND THE REAR TIRES. I LOVE THE CONTINUITY FROM FRONT AND BACK TO SIDE. NICE WORK BMW.
THE BACK LOOKS POWERFUL AS WELL. THE TAILLIGHTS ARE GORGEOUS. THERE IS SO MUCH DEPTH IN THEM AND THEY LOOK SO CURVACEOUS THE WAY THEY WRAP AROUND THE FROM THE SIDE TO THE BACK. THEY ARE SPLIT WITH THE TRUNK SEAM BUT LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE CONTINUITY.
THERE IS A SLIM CARBON FIBRE SPOILER ON THE BACK OF THE TRUNK TO GIVE A NICE ACCENT MORE THAN IT WOULD BE ANY DOWNFORCE. A GREAT LOOK. THE BMW BADGE IS DEAD CENTRE ON THE TOP OF THE TRUNK. THAT PART OF THE TRUNK DOES LOOK LIKE ITS MOULDED TO TILT BACK SLIGHTLY MAKING THE BACK LOOK MORE BEEFY AS WELL.
THERE IS AN INDENTATION FOR WHERE THE LICENSE PLATE GOES AND THEN COMES OUT AGAIN JUST OVER THE BUMPER. THE BLACK MOULDING SURROUNDING THE EXAUST PIPES UNDERNEATH IS ALL IN CARBON FIBRE AND LOOKS AMAZING.
