M Coupe vs Ferrari FF | Part I

M Coupe vs Ferrari FF | M Coupe compared to Ferrari FF


Since the time the Ferrari FF was unveiled, it has been compared to the M Coupe. It’s proportions are similar, and they’re both shooting brakes, but the similarities end there. As you can see in this photo posted on teamspeed.com by fqogil, the FF is immense compared to the M Coupe. It outweighs the M Coupe by nearly 1,000 lbs, and is almost 3 feet longer. This photo is a bit deceptive though, as the FF is only about 8 inches wider, and 3 inches taller than the M Coupe. The photo gives the perspective that the FF is several feet larger in all dimensions, though. Nonetheless, I like the comparison of the two from this angle.

S50B32 M Coupe | Cosmos Black | Black

S50B32 BMW Z3 M Coupe | Cosmos Black | Black | BMW X6 | Audi Q7


This Coupe was posted on autogespot.com by lepeltje lepeltje after spotting it in Schiphol, Netherlands. The photos caught by eye because of the way the Coupe is dwarfed by the BMW X6 and Audi Q7. I think the contrast in size is pretty humorous. Based upon the non-chrome trimmed headlights, all black kidney grille slats, Hyper Silver Roadstars and flat M badges, this is a 98 or 99 M Coupe with an S50 under the hood. The Coupe appears to be all stock, aside from the AC Schnitzer exhaust.

1999 M Coupe | Evergreen | Evergreen/Black

1999 BMW Z3 M Coupe | Evergreen | Evergreen/Black | Italy

 

This M Coupe was posted for sale on autoscout24.eu in Giulianova, Italy with 75,000 km (46,602 miles) for €25,000 (~$34,760 USD). This Evergreen/Evergreen, sunroof delete Coupe must be extremely rare. There is only 1 EG/EG sunroof delete M Coupe in the US, obviously with an S52, rather than an S50 like this Coupe. There are said to have been 2,178 LHD S50 M Coupes produced, whereas there were 2,180 S52 M Coupes produced. Very similar numbers. There were 41 Evergreen M Coupes produced for the US, and I suspect that those numbers are similar, if not less elsewhere. The Coupe appears to be all stock with the exception of newer 2000+ headlights with chrome trim rings, and the suspension seems a bit lower, so it may be aftermarket. The kidney grille slats also seem to be chrome trimmed, which makes me think that it is a 2000, but the ad indicates that it was first registered 4/1999.

This M Coupe was posted for sale in Adliswil, Switzerland on gute-autos.ch with 105,000 km. The Coupe appears to be all stock. I can’t identify from the photos if the Coupe has a sunroof or not. I want to say it does not have a sunroof, but am uncertain. What do you guys think?

1998 M Coupe | Dakar Yellow | Gray/Black

1998 BMW M Coupe | Dakar Yellow | Gray/Black


This M Coupe was posted in z3mcoupe.com by Hans Winkler of Germany. I’ve posted some shot of his Coupe before, but at that time it had 18″ Style 67 E46 M3 wheels and stock suspension. Since then he has added Chrome Shadow Roadstars, and lowered the Coupe. I’m guessing KW suspension, as that seems the frequent choice in Europe, whereas TC Kline is a frequent choice in the US. The ride height looks perfect, and the wheels look perfectly flush in the rear. When I was running Roadstars, I had 18mm spacers in the rear. I’m guessing he is running something similar. The M flag vinyl graphic is an interesting touch. I haven’t seen anybody highlight the lower portion of the “C” pillar before.
