No M5 for me, the M3 is heavy enough.
I figured you were having fun. It's all good.

yea but i don't think that extra 86 hp is enough to make up all that weight from m3, m3 weights 3,704 and has 414 hp and m5 weights 4,012 and has 500, there is 400lbs difference and 86 hp, so if you stripped like 100-300 lbs of weight from m5, that m5 will be ready for anything. so for your question, i say that m5 will be better if you take that much weight. |

There is also an issue with size and weight distribution, so even if you really strip down the M5, its not going to be and M3 on track, albeit faster.

weight distribution is a major element to a good track car, thats one thing that is wrong with ripping out the back like I did, your not getting equal distribution, but it makes the car even funner to drive, and harder for that matter

Dosen't have to be an E92. Any car like a MB CLK63 Black series or whatever, I just want to get some ideas of what is possible and have only found what you posted. I think its a nice start. I don't think I want to eliminate the rear seats though but I do have to change everything anyway as my interior is Fox Red and the BMW Perormance seats that I got are black alcantara. This means I have to change everything that is Fox Red in the rear and front doors to a combination of black leather and alcantara. If the rear seats end up being somwhat smaller, that is fine with me since they are only really used by my very young kids everyonce in a while.
