am I crazy?
On a sunny day, I was going home on the parkway in my pathfinder. Heard a vaguely familiar sound whiz by. It was an M3 coupe. So, I follow him just to listen to the engine sound. Every time he gives the throttle, the beast howls. Didn't get a good look at the exhaust. Dodn't think it was modded. I followed him all the way until I had to exit. It was sweet music to my ears. Even when I'm not driving the damn thing, I'm mesmerized by it.
 Here's where I think I'm going nuts. When I actually drive the M3, I don't get the full sound effect that I heard when I was a bystander. I'm just playing music for others. What do you guys think? Am I crazy or what?

I had a similar experience a couple of days ago. Throttle blips sound incredible when you are behind the car. I patched up with a Houston ///M Club member on the freeway and we just happen to be headed home the same way. That Akra exhaust sounded amazing every time he downshifted.......long live throttle blips and DCT

I barely listen to the radio any more after I got my exhaust and hell even before that I never really played it that loud.

that's when you know your a car feen (however you spell it)
I don't have an e9xM, but anytime we have an e46m in the shop I look over the whole entire thing as if i didn't own one.. Same thing if i see one on the road, i stare at it as if I don't see mine everyday in the driveway. It's truly a sickness i enjoy. |

Thank God, I'm not alone! I appreciate the feedback. I feel like I'm at an AA meeting. Hi, my name is Jason. I'm an M-holic!
