lol, there is probably a Lambo owner who says the same thing about BMW's. There's always a couple of "these" guys in every car group.

We all love our M3s and we all have our reasons for getting one, but it's not the best car in the world and other people simply have other priorities and different tastes. If you think you're hot shit because you drive a $60-70K car, then you need to open your eyes to the world because there are a whole lot of people out there driving much nicer cars than you and even more people driving cheaper cars that are more wealthy than you. If you don't believe me, come visit the Bay Area sometime where Porsches, Ferraris, and Bentleys are as common as trees and the guy driving the Prius next to you is probably a muti-millionaire start-up founder or venture capitalist.

Ultimately, we are all car enthusiasts here. If some guy has an S2000 that pumps out 500+ hp, he and his car get props from me (unless, of course he thinks he's hot shit just because of his car too).

+2 !!!! (adding to the plus above me

)

marty_mcfly · 04-15-2009, 03:20 AM

i went on a drive with this guy one time (that some guys at 6speedonline set up) after cars & coffee. real nice guy not to mention, a beast of a car. he was hanging with modded 996 turbos and didnt even give me a chance

(i was driving the 997 which is stock) hes usually at C&C.

I never own a honda and never a huge fan of honda's but even i know double-wishbone suspensions all around + 2800lbs curb weight and 240hp means a little bit of business. if you make that comment on any trackday/time attack forum you better have your flame suit on. i am sorry i just don't understand people's hatred for honda's sometimes, it's not like honda's can cut you off or put annoying mufflers and bodykits on all by themselves

More of "Mines bigger than yours..." I once had a lowly Mustang Cobra with a Vortech S-Trim and a 4:30 rear end that would embarrass just about everyone, including a whole pack of P-cars on the highway one day, vettes, BMWs and at the end of the day, it was a creaky rattly POS with a big motor and drag radials. That being said, it didn't lessen the fun I had at the expense of the P-car driver, or the sickend, stunned expression on his face.

The real question is did you buy your car because you love it, or did you buy it so everyone else would love it?

aznbenz07 · 04-15-2009, 07:53 PM

You probably made his day, that's the whole reason Asian import guys mod cars. So that they can run into guys like you driving cars they can't afford and blow the doors off your car @ a stop light. (I'm one of em

guarnibl · 04-16-2009, 05:17 AM

My friend just swapped an LS7 into his RX-7

And GODDAMN. It's crazy seeing a foreign car make that sound when you're not expecting it. I believe he's pushing 600 whp if I'm not mistaken. I'm too scared to ride in it though. F that.

I really hope that was sarcasm? S2000's are possibly some of the best handling cars ever built. they were not meant for turns or race tracks? is that why they dominate the redline time attack series?

Being a one time Honda owner (98 Integra) I can say I loved my car.... but like posted above, ANY car can be made to haul ass. Its the total package I think for most M3 owners. "Out of the BOX" M3 kinda get high ranking with everything.. speed. luxury..looks.. and whatever other reason you got your M3.

Hell a freaking CRX with a H22 engine Turbo charged will pretty much rape anything, lol.

M3 is just a beautiful piece of "out of the box" machinery that brings out its owners pride.

"Out of the Box" = straight from factory.
