It also seems the hood was shaped a little to give it a more of a "eyelid" look to where the headlights meet the hood.
An E46 M3 front bumper was used with an aftermarket lip.
E60 5-Series tail lights were used. I THINK the trunklid and bumper were also used but only after severe modification.
All I can say is..

nice break down. you could be right, but i dont think so. look at the hood again, it isnt the sedan, i still think that it is a Z3 hood. although, i havent gotten a pic of the Z3...

a few...
haha, what a waste of a car.
I also think that the hood is a modified Z3 hood just because of the way it comes down over the inner corners of the headlights and the shape of the kidney grille. I think it has to be completely hacked up though because it doesn't look right with the proportions and it almost seems to be uneven from front to back. This car is a disaster of BMW parts and aftermarket goodies

IT IS NOT A SUBARU
For one thing, Subarus have 5-lug hubs.
For another thing...e1000 already broke it down. Look at the pic of the e30 3 series he linked. It looks exactly like the fugly car at the top of this thread (minus the crap bodywork).
For a final thing - I owned a WRX for nearly 3 years and it looks nothing like that slab-sided thing.

I can smell the BMW hate..
Even tho I own an AMG, I will take an M over an AMG any day. Mercedes = Grand Touring Car, BMW = Sports Car. I say that because, when you slap an auto tranny into a car that should have a SMG type tranny or just plain Stick, you are focusing on comfort and not on joy of the drive. Let AMG's have more power, ill take the better handling and more fun to drive car anyday.
I say this not as a BMW biased person, but as a person who loves cars, with an objective eye.

first of all you guys need to calm down and learn to have some fun. this car is a JOKE. I mean cmon guys. this is not a serious thread and was setup to provide humor. If it were a AMG I would make humor of it the same way. it's called a little fun ( although the owner of the amazing BMW pictured above my not approve). As for Mr. Grunt. if you like BMW over Merc, then why don't you own one? if you do, then disregard. as we can all tell this car is probably not a BMW or a good representation of one. this is suppose to be fun-ny, sorry your feelings got hurt please move on to another thread. where you can talk about all the important stuff like resonator removals and green filters over and over and over again.

Again I was just saying how the bmw hate should stop, ive been a member on bmwboard and not once in 3 years of membership there did I hear a mercedes flame. Both are great cars, just one or the other appeal to certain tastes.
