It's just my personal subjective opinion, but that car is one ugly hunk of shit. Killer engine I admit, but that's about it.
No thank you.

It always seems like the ones who are very focused on making their car faster on the street have never taken their car to the track. I highly recommend doing that. The M3 is plenty fast at the track stock (way beyond most of our skill levels) and after track experience, driving fast on the street is hardly any fun at all, not to mention you start to see how dangerous of an environment it is for that kind of driving. I don't even find driving on the mountain back roads very fun anymore. ISF's and C63's try to egg me on all the time and I just cruise at a comfortable pace thinking about that next track day why they make themselves look like an idiot in traffic.

Certainly not someone who knows next to nothing about cars which is about the only reason I can think of other than the prejudice toward any American car you manifest that would make you call a good car that isn't to your particular taste a piece of shit. So which is it, prejudice or ignorance? A combination of both?

Although the M3 hauls ass compared to most cars in a straight line, this was not the intent of the vehicle. The car was designed to have incredible handling, proper balance, and to do work at the track.
The M3 pwns the C63 in most track comparison tests. Most people who have driven both cars seem to concur that the M3 has more favorable performance and cosmetic characteristics. If you are looking to win in a drag race, I would suggest looking at other vehicles or waiting for the F30 M3 to come out. I would bet it will be VERY fast in a straight line with the increased torque and hp figures from the turbos.

No. That honor would belong to a GTR if you can bare to look at it. Or if you want something good looking, get a Shelby GT500

Thanks captain obvious. While we know it will be stupid fast, it will sound like complete garbage.. I'm willing to bet on it. You know that glorious metallic ticking sound when you start up the M? Gone... Sound for me plays a big role. |

I believe this is the most cost efficient way to add performance to the M3 if you are looking to rival the c63 AMG's straight line performance:

In Akra Evo is a good option for more power in the same way that any catless+tune set-up is . But IMHO, in that price range you should go with an ESS VT1-535 instead ! |
