UD/BD has made some of the SP classes cost far more than they ever should - trying to track down unobtanium OE parts and mix this set of parts with that can make it more costly than SM, where you just go aftermarket and are done. I don't see UD/BD expanding anytime soon.
Should have qualified this... Not talking wholesale changes, just simple bolt-on items like rim sizing, springs, calipers, etc.

I'm done w/ SM, but will feel a bit hand-tied in Street--but I need to simplify my life... lol

I was actually starting to think F80 M3 w/ the CC brakes, upgraded suspension & CF roof for double-duty (AutoX & DE) as a genuine FS contender, but in AS--no way, IMHO...
