Nice car, personally don't like the 1980s body with 2000's ricer addenda (lights, mirrors, white instruments) very much, though- could be supremely 80s cool with the right wheels and tail lights. What does that licence plate mean?

Not a genuine Hartge.

Lives in the remuera shops, the appt block beside the video store - Youngish Asian dude owns it - pretty sure he's canadian. Sounds so tough, massive exhaust on it.

Jezz do you know his birthday too?

Its funny how we notice things about people just because they drive a bemma

Ollie: i didnt know you were at massey, I'm at the main campus with my last exam this semester tomorrow.

Have you seen the 740/750iL in a wine/ faint gold colour there with the huge rims and grey tints?

I also saw a special edition 1 series at the main campus, i didnt get a very good look at it as i was in my mates car. i think it was a AC in silver with some pretty whack wheels too

If it were a Hartge that would make it S36 powered which I doubt as only about 6-7 were ever made but I see you can buy the badges off ebay...

Shame about it being right hook too

Is it real - gear indicator doesn't look dog leg. Would make is US spec?

Have a closer look.

1st is across to the left and down. This makes it dogleg. Well at least a dogleg gear knob anyway.

I also spotted this car today at the Ellerslie Racing Club...took some pix...looks great. So did anyone ever work out, is it a genuine M3 ?

Def a genuine m3 - not a harge thing though.

It has the Evo Sport rear spoiler and front splitter etc etc, but couldn't spot the aliminium plate in the centre console that would have its number out of the 500 odd that were made.

Looks so badass on those wheels.

Not a Sport Evo - they only came with M-tec cloth or black leather with ///M stripe accents.

Sport Evo spoilers and bumper tape are pretty easy to fake, as is a metal plaque. 600 were made fyi.

Also, its got fogs and an Evo 2 front spoiler - Only early M3's came with fogs, and Evo 2's didn't.
