Something positive

fastrack · 01-20-2011, 11:44 PM

I find there's a lot of negative comments and post lately, so i thought i would try to change the mood.
I got my car in November, 2 days later it snowed, so in the garage in went, then i was away for 2 weeks. I got back from holidays, the snow was gone, but i sent my headlights away to Miami, to get the OOS done

.

I got the headlights back a few weeks later, installed them back on, u guessed it, more snow. So after 2 months, i got only 225km on the car. Well, the snow melted away about a week ago, the road are relatively free of sand and rocks, so i took it out yesterday.
Drove it for about a hour through some crazy turns around the lake here. This car is perfect

. I've been waiting forever to hear that engine with the challenge x-pipe and the Eisenmann. The sounds is pure sex. I can't wait to be able to step on it pass 5500RPM

The handling is incredible.

I don't miss my 335 at all. when i was trying to decide whether to make the move, quite a few over at e90 post were telling , not worth it, just mod a 335, all i can say is " Whatever buddy, you don't know what ur missing

Do you have the eisenmann sport or race?

Good post. Post some more pics when you have time

preaching to the choir.

On another note, the M3 handles like a champ with snow tires. The DSC works really well in the snow. It's very safe.

Most 335i drivers don’t realize that the M3 is around 80% different from the regular 3 series. During the M Power event they showed a presentation of why the M3 is 80% different. First, they use Seem Welds instead of Spot Welds for rigidity. Next, just about every other part of the car is Beefed-Up (Clutch, Fly Wheel, Suspension and so forth.) Since I have a 135i (fun and fast) and I drive them back-to-back, I can agree with FASTRACK, “you don’t know what ur missing.”

@ E82Pilot: That is great info. I knew that the M3 had a far different look and feel than the 335i, but didn't know that it was designed to be 80% different. No wonder this machine is freaking unbelievable. Grinning ear-to-ear everytime I get in the car...even if I am just running to the grocery store
