I'm all for some good debate but, his comments IN THIS post are just plain nonsense/biased information.

What is he launching his X3?

I rarely ever post on a site unless I have something good to say but this time those comments and sig got me heated.

This is my first ever flame on anyone on any forum and personally I believe it was well justified.

Now if you believe that having one post is not enough to express my opinion thats ok.. but i had to raise the :bs:flag.

As far as asking to ban him i did no such thing. I just asked others to chime in and give their opinion on the matter.

eh, who care. this is the int3rn3t. stop taking things so absurdly serious. If mateo's such a douche (which i think so) he'll learn his lesson in real life, not because you got ppl to ban him from this forum.

Yeah it definitely worked man! I lurked here for a few months before I registered too. I'm looking forward to your view of the 135i versus your EVO X too. I'm surprised your not looking into the EVO X.

Well I guess I'm just kind of disapointed in the cut of the 4G63 heritage. Call me an Evo Fanboi? Also the MR edition only comes in Dual Clutch... I understand Mitsu is trying to appeal to the "higher end consumer" but honestly Evo's sold like crack, it's basically the only thing that kept them from going under here in the states.

Don't get me wrong though, I'm actually excited to see what the Dual Mivec setup will push out with a tune. We had AMAZING results with the IX's 4G63 Mivec, it basically rendered the necessity to get Cams useless if you wanted to reach a WHP goal of 320.

I hope the porkster rocks but I have some small doubts.

Anyways the 135 is such a sexy bitch it makes me want to rape that gas tank on the daily. Since my first sight of its sexyness online I haven't been able to stop searching this and other 335i sites...

TAKE ME TO 135'ers Anonymous

I'm with ya on the dual-clutch. Only MTs for me.

The first drives of the EVO X make it sound a little boring, too. I liken it to when I sold my Land Rover Discovery (old-skool truckish) for the new Land Rover LR3 (space shuttle-ish). The LR3 was capable and comfy... But boring.

135: HA! Sexy bitch, indeed.

Nice try.

I have launched many MT boosted(2wd and awd) cars... I have to say that AWD(in general) takes much more finesse and patience to get consistent results. I will say again that i have never met anyone that bought a specific car because they suck at launching...

I never said it didn't. I dont have a problem here. I like types of cars. I do know a few things about tuning, and I said a few things that clearly spun out a few AWD boys. No harm intended. No drama either.
