snohman · 05-29-2008, 06:49 PM

ok one thing....
the B7 is an absolute BEAST!
to think a car w/ that much mass can pull that hard and that quick, is mind boggling. stuck that sucker in manual mode and played w/ the right side + button and left side - button. It was quick and decently nimble. I think i'd take it over a merc S-class.

as for the e92 m3...i was furnished with a 6mt...stabbed at the accel pedal in the garage w/ the clutch pushed in....
damn it sounded NICE!!!

looked down at the odo...a tad under 20k on the clock...

edc - sport
MDM
power - Sport plus
servotronc - sport

and off we were...this car is an absolute monster in 1st gear...downright scary, that rev limiter comes up quick. 2nd and 3rd gears, the intial punch after shifting feels strong, dies out a little bit, then pulls HARD in the upper rev band.

This car is an absolute blast to drive!!
A broken in //M is not to be messed with.
The fun factor on this car is an 11 on 1-10 scale.
335i on coilovers DO NOT comparfed to EDC in sport mode...the m3 handles like a rock man.

I still do think it is a tad overpriced IMHO, but it is definitely worth more than a 335i, I just don't agree w/ BMW on how much more

Nabster, you got one hell of a car...wait as that engine gets stronger w/ age....i had a blast driving it today...

2SwiFt29 · 05-29-2008, 06:54 PM

M3 sounds great

!Xoible · 05-29-2008, 06:58 PM

steve i've taken mine to 145 mph in 4th gear that was one hell of an experience very stable.
i went drifting on friday when it was raining and messed with all suspension/traction settings, i ditched the idea of comparing it to a 335 long ago. not to discredit 335, it's one hell of a car for sure even stock.

today im driving a modded E46 M3 that's hella fun man hahaha

Crimson92 · 05-29-2008, 07:02 PM

i want an e46 m

!Xoible · 05-29-2008, 07:09 PM

I just got home from the Lexus driving event. Man it was a blast and best of all..FREE. I wish other auto makers would do the same type of events. The IS350 sounded awesome with the F sport exhaust. The IS-F is kinda disappointing especially with the acceleration...took forever to hit 110+MPH.

2SwiFt29 · 05-29-2008, 07:17 PM

damn work.. i wanted to go too.. oh wells
