BMW M Coupe gets a make over with BBS LM's and H&R Coilovers

Imran@Evolve · 02-04-2022, 09:21 AM

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

After introducing our M Coupe to you all we decided to make this car a bit of a project that we follow on our channel, as it is a fairly unusual car that's not very well represented on YouTube!

So to begin with we are doing some modifications I always wanted back when I owned my first M Coupe in over 15 years ago.... BBS LM wheels! And to get it sitting right on those gorgeous wheels a set of H&R Coilovers.

A set of wheels always makes a car feel much more 'yours', and this gets it one step closer to the vision of the 'perfect' M Coupe I have.

Thanks for sharing your stunning M Coupe

Awesome! The Legendary clown-shoe reigns supreme.

MilehighM3 · 02-05-2022, 12:31 PM

Badass car! Thanks for sharing.

Anyone out there with a clean example of one of these looking for a nice E90 M3 instead, let me know. I've always wanted one but it's hard to find one that's super clean.

I used not to be a fan of this clown shoe car when first introduced

But sometime back, I saw one @Zentrum and loved it

best wishes

Love the clownshoe! Well done Imran!

ChampagneQrtzPapi · 02-05-2022, 10:16 PM

This needs to stop! I'm tryna get back into one but can't cuz inflation n now everyone wants to jump on board. Just stop!

Red Bread · 02-05-2022, 10:20 PM

Love it. LM's are perfect for it. It's the one BMW I've owned that I truly enjoyed every part of. Well, maybe not the stock rear shock mounts.

JRock80 · 02-05-2022, 11:33 PM

Not bad for a clown shoes build! 🥴😆🤣

Poiseuille · 02-06-2022, 11:04 AM

tyvm indeed OP: great car, great vid, I enjoyed every second of it….funny thing though: I found my eyes repeatedly drawn to one particular feature. quite a mystery really, just can't imagine why……..

Great video Imran. Nice to see more quality content covering the M Coupe!

I have owned my Estoril M Coupe for over 4 years and counting (longest I've ever kept any car). By far my favorite BMW I've had. Such a special and unique car that often gets attention when I have it out. A lot of us in the Z3 Coupe/M Coupe groups consider this our "never sell" car.

Just goes to show that oftentimes nothing more is needed than the perfect set of wheels and bit of fiddling with the suspension.

BBS for the win. Every single time.

Loved my two Z3M Roadies and one Z3M Coupe. The two tone interiors are still some of my favorites ever.

Beautiful car especially with the drop, would need to raise it a little for the roads around me, the bumper would be gone in a day. Wheels really suit it as well looks stunning
