I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Who here likes M coupes?

Definately looks good, and would be a great car for both DD duties and alittle fun. Looking at the one pic, it sorta has the same body/roof line as an EG with a stretched out front end.

I agree.


I'm very surprised by the 100% thumbs up thus far. Most people I talk to say they look like penises....I guess they kind of do, but what girl doesn't like a wiener? Or more importantly, do I like wiener?

besides have rear subframes that rip out of them, because they are pretty much an e30 subframe, and a crappy s52 motor in the first gens, i like them. just make sure you get the new subframe supports if you are going to get one, also check out the subframe before you buy one to make sure its not ripping out yet.

btw, an s52 is far from crappy...it just doesn't have 300+ hp like the crazy ass s54.

ill look into how much the supports cost for you. and no they dont have the same subframe as an e36. some bmw "engineer" thought it was a good idea to use early 80's technology on a late 90's car... and the s52's hold boost real well and is really expensive to do, but you are going to be paying out of your ass to mod that car anyway.
