-   -   Porsche 911 ??? and BMW 3 series ( M3 badge ) spotted (https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/super-cars-imports-india/17854-porsche-911-bmw-3-series-m3-badge-spotted.html)

Pics taken at 2am from phone cam hence bad quality, went back at 7am to get better pics, but by then the cars had gone.

Porsche 911 ???







isnt this a 3 series with M3 badging ???

Nice find Jay. Yes that is a regular 3 series coupe with some good accessories to make it look like a M3...seems like a used import,dont see why someone would import this when the new versions out already.
Is the porsche a GT3?

No the 911 isnt a GT3. Its a 997 Carrera S with an optional spoiler. I've seen those M5 style rims on a Z3 here in Chennai like on that 3 coupe.

Seems like a normal 3-series coupe with flashy rims & a 911 Carrera S with optional GT-3 wing.

Nice pics, good find....very few 911's. And thats a normal 3 Series. And he's put M3 wheels and badges on it. Nice condition.

To understand the difference, perhaps this will be of use:

Hey Gordon i've read your above thread hence was able to tell it was a 3 series, else as soon as i saw it, i thought it was an M3...

Both the cars were in good condition and the Porsche was a stunner...

Im not too sure as to where to post this, but i spotted the 2006 M3 the other night. Here is the pic. Not very clear though.

its not a m3 its an m5

yup....the high boot line gives it away....

I am not too sure abt it being an M5 though.... I think it is a regular 5 Series...

probably the only hint of it being an M5 is the dual exhausts

Undoubtedly M5.
Quad exhausts and rear bumper are M5 type.

This guy was ripping the car like there's no tommorow. Ive gotta love his license plate. 69!!

That is one of the latest M5 in Mumbai.. a direct import..

looks like that Porsche belongs is the tractor of the humble farmer's grandson

We have a quite a few 911s,boxsters and cayennes here in chennai
