So there's an MRoadster in the parking lot at work, with aftermarket wheels and a big exhaust. It's also got 'Dinan' and 'ISR 3' badges on the back. I know a little about Dinan and what it takes to get the badges on it, but I had NO idea about this. 'ISR' stands for Intercooled Supercharged Roadster. It's a $37000 conversion!!! (http://www.dinanbmw.com/html/prices/m%20ro...r%201998-99.htm) that puts out 396hp http://www.caranddriver.com/xp/Caranddrive...yfile_dinan.xml

 

cool, I have never seen the car in person. but, in my local BMWCCA Chapter, there is a guy also has supercharger on his M roadster. He is outputing something like 350HP+ and got custome body and wheels. I remember he is runing 305 or 325 size of tire in the back. Let me assure you, it is like driving on rail.

But, little bit about Dinan, they don't sell badges. If you see a car with a Dinan badge, be afraid. Chances are it got a supercharger.

 

Hey Perry-

You probably did see the ISR in person- at MIS...

At One Lap this year, my friend Reg drove the BMW/Dinan M Roadster ISR to a top 20 finish...

 

I saw a Dark Blue one here in Raleigh, the other day no joke and I had no idea what it was. Now I know

 

Really? shame on me, man. I usually notice this kind of stuff. Guess not all the time.

 

dinan is going to be supercharging Z8's and M5's soon...they're talking 550 hp!!!
