Speaking of coupes, the new 645 coupe is ridiculously overpriced, but I'm sure they'll probably sell every one they make.

Martin,
Your M3 is sick. I can't tell from the pic but have you considered getting your hands on the trunk lid from the CSL lightweight? I'm looking into a new M3 with the competition package or a used M5. If I could get my hands on the carbon fiber parts from the CSL I'd go for the M3 hands down.

I don't know.......I did want a STI before. I agree it's not an attractive car, but it does has it's muscular look in some perspectives.

First of all thanks Dennis for the compliment, im just getting started with this car, and keeping the looks nice and simple but very aggressive, not overdone!

Yes im ordering the full CF CSL trunk also, i have the front and rear to match And to whoever said the 380 TT g35 is an M3 eater is misinformed, 380hp doesnt mean shi! sorry to say, all of the test of FI g35's like the one in road and track speed issue are very dissapointing IMO... Check them out!

Damm ill scan tomorrow, anyway Stillen Gcoupe got 0-60 in 5.1 and 1/4 mile in 13.5 while Greddy TT got 0-60 in 5.3 and 1/4 mile in 13.3!

Marty Mar....tsk tsk tsk....

Don't spit into the well you drink from (or drank from for that matter....).
You lucky bastard. Stop flashing your wheels here. I see that a plain M3 wasn't enough... you had to slap some wheels too...

Anyways, don't forget those of us who still drive our wimpy Japanese G

Martin, martin, martin... Shame on you. You know that MOST people who have the TT setup will soon be blowing their engines, going with forged internals and be running 10-15 psi of boost. They'll be in the high 10's or low 11's and they'll be able to spot your M3 to the 60' mark.

I have to agree with you on the Stillen stage one supercharger...not enough hp for the money. Don't be confused though, a Vortech blower with a 9 lb pulley will get you almost 400 rwhp. I have personally seen blown 350zs running high to mid 12s on stock tires. I have yet to hear about a blown motor with a supercharger that was properly installed. Grubbs in DFW has an almost uncanny way of tuning the Vortech safely and has an outstanding record. I would definitely get them to do it for me before anyone else.

martin we need to run, and video tape it for all to see I just need my headers installed
A lot of these times for the twin turbo setups are on different elivations. Up on 10,000 foot mountains or in 105 degree weather your going to see considerably worse times than you would here in NY/NJ at sea level in 30 degree weather, turbo's LOVE the cold. They also have serious traction issues. Give either of those TT cars slicks they are going to run much quiker, i forget who it was with less mods than i have and a pair of slicks hit a 13.0@102 and he posted the video. Than again slicks with help the M too but i know now i cant hold traction through 1st and into 2nd with my wheels on.... if i had a TT i would bet 0-40 is slower 40+ is beast....
It is true though these TT setups in the 1/4 mile are getting fairly slow times but their trap speed are 112+ thats crazy HP and shows its pulling real hard up top, I'm curious what to M3s trap at in the 1/4? Srt-4 neons trap at almost 107-108 with minimal mods, and still get low 14s but will eat you up in a street race, its all about that first 60 ft, emilimate that and the races could all be much different.....
My friend took his exhuast off his evo, ran open downpipe with his 3 inch downpipe he got, he has some intake i dont know which and ran it on a gtech to a 13.0 with me in the car kinda freaky, that thing pulls HARD. Hes all ready to mod the hell out of it now that he sees the potential, hes ordering the turboxs computer i believe with their exhuast package claiming like 40+ hp extra.... No body every mention the evo as a competitor, that car is held back stock, it has crazy boost lag but insane potential, people are seeing 400hp+ on stock turbos running low 12s high 11s, theres a white one in our are (long island) with everything you can do, even the turbo, i would say its one of the fastest cars around.... i dont know if any of you know the really old car always on dpa that jumps like 4 feet in the air when he hits it, fast as hell like primer color i think.... i have on video this evo comin back from a little deficit to murdering him... its crazy

stock for stock though theres not many cars that will touch the M3... martin you havent ran into any C5 corvettes have you?

At this point the best bang for the buck will be the C6 z06. That thing is faster than most FI at this point. Just wait till someone makes a FI for it. 0-to-death faster than you can blink your eye. Get that you will probably be king of your local hill for a awhile :-)
