Okay here is a car i happened to come upon while i was driving home in good ol 405 traffic. Heres the deal, it looked like a Bmw, it had hid's and had some wide tires on it. I at first thought it was an M3 but theres no dual exhuast as shown in other pics and when i got closer it just had a shit load of extra black on it. A new lexus maybe?. One thing is for sure, i am almost certian its a bmw but at the same time it had sooo much on the front i couldnt tell(had to pay attn to the road too )
what do you guys think?

Yep, looks like one of the E9x coupes. Did you get a good look at the brakes? Those would be a dead giveaway for an M car.

well i can tell you one thing the wheels did look like a Bmw type wheel and from what i could tell the grill and everything had the same type of look as the 3 series. One ting is for sure the rear wheels were huge(WIDE)
