Ned Jasper | The Unclaimed M – Four BMWs you never knew you wanted
It’s Friday, so what better way to celebrate than with photos of BMW’s special M creations" Ned Jasper takes you through them.Â
BMW M cars – namely the M5 and the M3. They?re blisteringly-quick saloons, right" Yes, in the past the M3?s also been a coupe and a convertible. But what about a hatchback version, or maybe an estate car" And how do you fancy an M5 convertible"
The following list consists of some of BMW M’s lesser-known secrets, and also happens to be a list of some rather cool creations. So prepare for what is almost definitely going to be an overwhelming sense of want for at least one car on this list.
1. E46 M3 Touring
This car recently hit the limelight in BMW’s ?30 years of M3? celebration. What a masterpiece it really is, although it might not be quite as pretty as it was in my dreams. It rides a little high, plus the wheel and colour combo don’t exactly flatter it – I’d have it in Interlagos Blue with the diamond cut 19″ alloys. It is, however, infinitely cool.
Who wouldn’t want a high-revving, 3.2-litre naturally aspirated straight-six, a manual gearbox, and enough room for all the family including the dog Considering BMW never made a saloon version of the E46 M3, the chances of an M3 Touring (that’s BMW for estate car ) were highly unlikely. Still, it’s nice to dream.
2. E36 M3 Compact
Less weight, same engine, more fun, right Forget about practicali...
