[LotusGT1]

Cool, obviously.

[saadie]

sub zero 8)

[LotusGT1]

If an M3 CSL is already subzero.....

[nthfinity]

this is likely the only BMW i'd ever concider Sub Zero :-D

why is it soooo utterly cold? well, for starters... good things happen when engineers go out to make a car strictly as good as they possibly can (with a focus on making a radical sports car) and they succeeded on every level. the compromise is that this is a road car. its practically perfect. the suspension, tuned for mastery of NS, the gearshift... albiet flappy paddles... its a track car, its tires...

i cant say enough good about the car... mabey one day, i'll see one :?

[TT]

It's the better evolution of the E46, a very desirable car for sure, but I can't forget how much you pay extra and how little on every day use you are rewarded. Had to give it an uncool rating because I'd like a lightweight M3 to cost less than the regular one, a bit like Renault does with its Clio

[bmagni]

the coolest bmw of modern times. subzero

[ARMAN]

Absolute SZ for me and one from the "dream garage" cars :P

[DMbaseball1604]

with disregard to price, this is the coolest BMW you can buy, IMO...the only thing I think they could have done is given the option for a manual instead of SMG

[graywolf624]

Cool.. its a better version of an m3. Nough said.

[gucom]

uncool for roughly the same reasons as TT, and the fact that its a BMW doesnt help either :)

[taygunho]

m3 csl is more than cool less than subzero. Voted cool.

[chest3r]

SubZero !!!

I couldn't vote anything else :P It looks great, it sounds even better and it's an excellent sports car. And I don't think it is so expensive as that, since it uses very expensive materials ( carbon fiber, lightweight wheels, etc. ) and it is so fast as some sports cars that cost much more :wink:

[dutchmasterflex]

subzero.. goes to show that BMW can run with ferrari's and porsches :)

[racer_f50]

it's cool to me, due the carbon fibre roof and cardboard trunk bottom :P

[ae86_16v]

If it was a supercar it would easily be sub-zero. But since it is based on the M3, I had to go conservative and vote "Cool".

Definitely very desirable.

[e46drew]

so S.Z. rece car for the street, like the cs :love:

[jorge]

Maybe the last subzero car from BMW, until now :|

[ZfrkS62]

the only thing restraining this car from being subzero is the fact that i can't get one :?

[TT]

subzero for me,
TT, i see where you are coming from. bu theres no way they could have charged less considering they used more expensive parts to kill weight and there was more horsepower

Of course, but I am sure there were ways to shave weight without using more expensive components ;)

[Stikz]

Subzero, one of my favourite cars ever, with possibly one of the nicest rear lid spoilers in the biz.

[|Nuno|]

Cool.

[Erez]

SO close to a subzero.. so close.. but not quit.. the coolest a car can be before going to subzero!

[crayzayjay]

Almost subzero. Almost ;)

[elbugalee]

Subzero, this is the best BMW ever, and one of my 10 favorite cars!


and it's so beautiful :drool:

I dream with this car, but in Brazil it's very very expensive!

since when has price affected a car's 'coolness'...
...subzero for me

[saadie]

i say stone cold 8) 8) 8)

[raphaelws]

uncool! :|
just the noise is cool.. the rest.. uncool!

[elbugalee]

uncool! :|
just the noise is cool.. the rest.. uncool!


you really hate BMWs :(

When I have mine, I remember that, and I'll not pass near you ehehe

[elbugalee]

[nthfinity]

MSRP based out std. form is $48,500 for the E46M3

[e46drew]

but fully loaded with all Dinan upgrades with bhp bumped to 465, with full fact. wty.
is a little under 100,000 usd. :wink:

[callen]

the best M3 ever made? subzero obviously! sounds like heaven, looks awesome, I love it!

[skituner]

its not sold in the U.S. there is definatly cool

[MIHALS]

subzero of ALL beemers - I don't care about the M5 or M6, this is the most beautiful and mean 3 serie ever, beast on 4 wheels, sounds like a hell and makes me go :shock: :drool: :love:
"eats small children and scarres women" - the best expression :twisted:

[DeMoN]

For all those of you voting COOL and not Sub Zero... wait till new M3 is out and looks so ugly you'll regret not setting this as SUB ZERO.

[elbugalee]

MSRP based out std. form is $48,500 for the E46M3

:( I really hate that, if costs that price in Brazil maybe I'll have one! but a new one price here is $180.000,00

[cooperluke]

remember, im not talking about the CSL

in Brazil, is that 180,000 how much it would cost USD with the exchange rates? well over 300% more expensive seems pretty crazy.

[emmepower]

sub zero .. :twisted:

[wfrigginlewis]

Everybody and their mother has a 3 series and only dudes, not babes, are gonna approach you and appreciate and even know what your E46 M3 CSL.

Thus, all 3-series, while not created equal, are equal in the eye of Woman, therefore seriously uncool because 3-series are uncool for ubiquity.

[nickthaskater]

It's not sub-zero, but it's definitely cool simply because of the stealth aspect. To the untrained person, it will just be a normal 3-series, or even just a normal M3, but it's so much more than that.

[thepest]

subest zero 0X

[acs power]

A true classic. SZ.

[pitfield]

Cool, gearbox ruins it. A manual CSL you be Subzero

[bmwdriver]

COOL !!!!
love that car

[TNT]

subzero, how many cars have carbon fiber roofs and card board trunks :P

[wudz]

I want to have this car!!! sub zero

[Cutmore]

Stunning car :drool: Love most of the BMWs, but this car has got to be the cream of the crop IMO!
