I'm sure you've have an interesting conversation with any law enforcement that takes a look in the car. They love race mods...

Yeah, all weaknesses addressed except for rod bearings, which, I'm not worried about at this point.

If I come across a e92 track car with the right mods at a reasonable price, I'd prob pull the trigger.

Yeah, I bought with all the mods intact. There were even more that were removed for part out (Genuine CSL trunk, genuine CSL door cards, Dinan throttle bodies, Z4M steering rack). Was a steal at the price I paid, imo.

Hasn't been dyno'd, but it weighs 3200 lbs without driver with full tank of fuel. I'll probably see if I can get it to a dyno just to see.

It is a bit of a factory freak in that, amongst my circle of friends who have e46s and have driven this car have tried to replicate the car with the exact mods and haven't been able to get as good as handling as this one.

I haven't washed the M3 since my track weekend in California. I took it to get it detailed and damn, I forgot how good she looked clean lol. I told the detailer not to remove the rubber track scars

front lip has seen some shit.

Is that vinyl tape holding it together? Pretty badass haha

Do it. You've seen the videos on IG

Those Dinan TB's actually make power. Too bad they came off.
