No need for that picture on this post.

Phil is just showing PF pics of his latest car and is no way attention seeking.

Nice one Phil.

The only way you are going to prove the BHP claims to the doubters on here is to get it on the rollers and post a graph

No way thats making 346bhp i can make out that its a L plater so that makes ita 3.0 286bhp standard, chip exhaust an filter and max ull have 305bhp..........i went further with mine and changed the cams decatted the exhaust changed the manifolds balanced the bottom end had gt internals fitted custom map and a Ł1000 carbon fibre grp a induction kit and mine made just over 330bhp but ended up costing me close to Ł15k inc a new engine and all the above bits added!!!!!!!!!!! and that went and sounded fucking awesome

I like that

but colour coding the number plate to match the wheels is going too far

cheers

Not usually a big fan of M3's but that looks spot on



Love how you had to have the garage door open in the first shot though so we could all see the arse end of the rarri

Nice car dated now but still cool and classy and fast

Why claim the BHP though Phil??? you know its not true!

Also I thought you said it was a Trackcar as well?? what makes that a trackcar???

The budget Bilstein ROAD suspension???, the (very sexy) leather seats which weigh 8.4 tons each? or is the emporers Rollcage?

Enjoy it

Nice colour, not a fan of the wheels with it though. Would be hard to match though.

How do you actually shift cars that quickly? I have sold several cars and they take between 4-10 months to actually sell, all priced just below their nearest competitor and very close to market. Note this isnt obscenely cheap so people think there is something wrong.

Sorry phill but your bhp claim is a bit high i had a m3 e36 for 2 years it had a scorpion panel filter n just little mods had it on the rollers it made 280 bhp at the fly..it was good for donuts & back end action & top speed runs gr8 in 5th but you had to ring its neck to get any kinda go out of it..
& i work for bmw theyre all the same i know yours is live mapped n stuff & i like your car but 340 bhp out of a 286bhp model is a bit steep a evo maybe as they are 320 odd bhp with your mods a extra 14-20 should be more like it.
