^^Exactly you want reliability and performance. Besides 400+ rwhp is all anyone needs for a street car. Its great to have hp but lets face it 400 to the wheels is enough to take on almost anyone out there and kick azz. Not into street racing myself. I was thinking of going FI but now I'm really leaning twards the new M3. I just miss a v-8 all motor and v-8 torque.

the new M3 engine is in a league of its own now....it's lighter than the previous M3 I6. and it has 420HP and 295lb torque from 2300rpm to 6300rpm with a red line of 8350 rpm. What other V8 does that?
but the car itself? uh...looks like crap.
I do want a high reving v6 and if I can do it in the VQ, it would be super.

we just got back from the dyno on my husbands car and watching that beast just made me itch for more power....hahaa....but when his gets finished it'll be a race for sure.......

Not a big fan of the styling on the M3 but 450hp all motor is def doable. And the new G37 isn't what I thought it'd be. I am either going Z06, M3 or ISF with my next whip. I like the new ISF coming out but it only has an auto tranny at present time. I have never been a Lexus fan I finally found a model I might like but they go and fugg up the damn tranny. Typical Toyota trying to keep us gearheads from going to damn fast.

I can't wait til I can get fi,hot car and well you,well,you match the car well haha. I'm thinking early next year for FI....I just have to work my *** off while it's there. Which is going to suck,since I don't have another car to drive,so I will have to rent some pos to beat on til I get it back. I'm probably going to go with Altered Atmosphere, I've met Mike and he's a really good guy,so it should be fun.
