View Full Version : F80 or F30? cheu_f50 Sat, Nov-12-2011, 04:03:07 AM I was under the impression that the chassis is F30, and no official word on whether the coupe will be sharing the same platform or not (thus it could be a completely different number instead of F82 or F32). Can anyone confirm this? EmDeeAr Sat, Nov-12-2011, 04:11:03 AM Maybe the M is F80 and the normal 3er is F30? I'm thinking that F80 = M3 sedan and F82 = M3 coupe. Seems weird tho...

EmDeeAr Fri, Nov-18-2011, 01:35:03 PM Yeah I really think this is the case. I guess they are separating the M cars out a little more. Doesn't really make that much sense since it uses the F30 chassis. No biggie tho, just strange. NorthJersey M3 Fri, Jan-13-2012, 05:54:52 AM Maybe the M is F80 and the normal 3er is F30? I'm thinking that F80 = M3 sedan and F82 = M3 coupe. Seems weird tho... What's wrong with 1 number being coupes, verts and sedans for both M and non-M's? :facepalm: Uli_HH Fri, Jan-13-2012, 07:11:47 AM According to my informations: F30/F31/F32/F33/F34/F35/F36 are the regular AG-Models (incl.M Performence cars.) F80/F82/F83/F86 are the special M-GmbH models. Main reason for the different lable is ... the F8x body is totally different from the F3x body in material terms - the F3x body is made of steel and the F8x body is made of an combination from high-strength steel and carbon composites.

Also if its the case of different chassis, why wasnt this done for the M5? bimmerfan08 Wed, Apr-11-2012, 03:42:13 PM Maybe the M3 will finally have a completely different chassis! :shiftdriv Then the M3 will be a whole different animal and not just a suped up 3er chassis. m3fftl Thu, Apr-12-2012, 03:27:48 AM Maybe the M3 will finally have a completely different chassis! :shiftdriv Then the M3 will be a whole different animal and not just a suped up 3er chassis.

They wouldnt do that. Thats expensive, and in a time where BMW is trying to cut costs to increase profit margins it wouldn't happen. Plus such a car simply wouldnt be an M3 anymore.
