M3/M4 BMW M3 Coupe ***LICENSE PLATE***

[MickeyTER]

Ok on germancarforum.com it says


[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]"At the upcoming Geneva Motor Show BMW will show a concept car of the new M3 Coupe. However, the production version – for release this summer - will look in various details different from the concept, as can be seen on these prototype shots.[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]While the concept car has the license plate in the lower bumper area, it will show up in the production model between the taillights in the boot lid, as before."[/FONT]

This is Scott's "reply" from yesterday on other thread:

I WILL SAY ONLY THIS... when you see the new BMW M3 you will see it as a three dimensional shape rather than a photo-real image on a piece of paper or on a forum. While some will not take to what has been done it is something that does appear to stand out more rather than what you have already seen. And there you can judge for yourself how it looks in it's true visional state rather than a digital creation . But all this comes because of a reason and a reason that helps the car achieves it's goals in what it's purpose is for aswell as to distance the car visually away from the portfolio of the other 3er Coupe products.

So he hints that the licence plate will be in the bumper. So the question left is: Will it also be in the bumper for the production version?!

Best regards, south

My guess is trunk lid...at least for US as bumper may not be good fit for US plates.

I believe it will be placed on same place as 6-series and 1-series

This is nothing new...This is just the regurgitated info from this board. Most of those things can be found in our own M3 threads. The only thing this brings new is that the concept will have the LP in the bumper while the production will have it on the boot...in otherwords they don't know ***** they're talking about. We'll just have to wait and see. I think I trust Scott more than GCF.

My guess:
Europe On the bumper
U.S.A. on the trunk lid
