I seen the same Interlagos Blue E92 M3 twice now on RT 80 East to 95 South to 495 into Hoboken. I gave the guy a thumbs up once but thats about it in terms of contact. He has dark tints and smoked taillights. I don't think he has any performance mods because he never wanted to play.

I don't have smoked tail lights. But mine is tinted. I would have played, but the car is no longer street ready. Its setup for autox and the track mostly.

When I mean play I would did a few runs provided the NJSP weren't in the area. I just can't stand when people start doing the weaving in and out between cars as I don't feel like spending the night in the hospital let alone the rest of my life working to pay for someone else medical expenses. What Mods have you done to your car?

wait man on fire...is that you Lou?
your the only guy i know who possesses the ML63/Interlagos M3 combo in Morris County. I thought you live in the Madison/Florham Park area though? BTW your exhaust is sick.....but if your real serious about overall sound/performance you have to hear the ASR Sport Full Exhaust. It will scare little children, literally. My buddy has one and I have to say it's seriously one of the best sounding AMEs on the market. Anyways, I actually opted for the M6 vert over the 91142 and E93 M3. it's pretty amazing.

hhaha it's Paul, I met you through Amanda.
I had talked to you about the difficult M3 vs. M6 decision back in Novemeber. I had also wieghed in the Carerra S & 911 Turbo. The S is nice, although not that much of a upgrade from my E46. The 911 was rediculous , great power and performance, although a little out of my price range. My ///M friends hate me for this, but i'm still midly bullish on the new SL63 Vert. It's a fantastic ride. Next year the car should be feasible.

i couldnt agree more with you. Either route I go, I'll being used or cpo.
I've seen 06/07 Turbos in the low 70's to mid 80's - which is my target price point. I'm still not 100% crazy on the aesthetic aspect of that car. Although bar none, the performance is probably the best you can get in a production car. The SL63 has drop dead gorgeous looks, and the re-stlying has made the car look meaner and more agressive then ever. Plus the sound of that V8 is quite toxic. The problem I have has is the high price tag (i've seen used ones in the high 90's low 100's) and like you had mentioned, the reliability problems. I'm assuming the ML63 problems are enticing you to look at the X6M or X5M? But anyways For that much money I could get an 05/06 DB9 volante. As of right now though, an m3 or 07 M6 Vert seems the most feasible.

haha if your spending that much money bro, a 911 Turbo, stock, would still eat up an
C63 w/ ECU mods. Wont you be voiding your warranty with the chip? Not a very smart thing to do when owning a benz.

Also I would hope a 911 Turbo (997) should kill an C63 with a ECU flash. Your talking about a car double in value. However a stock 996 911 Turbo (http://www.dragtimes.com/Porsche-911...lip-10693.html) on the other hand will have a problem considering many C63 owners with ECU's reflashed are achieving quarter mile times in the high 11's. Also the ECU upgrades are not detectable as per the Kleemann NA rep. Aside from me telling the dealer upfront or placing Kleemann badges on my car no dealer is going to be able to detect it. Also like BMW dealers believe it or not there are a few mod friendly MB dealers in the area, just not North Jersey. |

another car i've been weighing heavily is the RS5. Specs finally came out: powered by the remarkable 4.2 FSI V8 pumping out 450 HP and 332lbft of torque. It will also be offered as a vert model, carrying a price tag in the 90Ks.
Can't wait till more details come out about this monster.

The RS4 however is another story... not as fast as the M3 but has many of the things I like - high revving engine, awesome V8 soundtrack, and a nice clicky manual transmission. I hope the RS5 will be in a similar vein but I just don't understand why Audi is trying to price RS models well over a corresponding M. |
