See, I was thinking that the 245 in my E36 M3 was about perfect because I think that the 263hp in my Mazdaspeed3 is just too much for a car that has to be daily driven. I can’t imagine an STI needing more power for anything. The Mazdaspeed3 is just so damn fast in every situation and its slower then the STI. I’ve…

They’re jets, hence the crazy power numbers. In no way could he make 1k with a micro-sized ICE.

I’ve always LOVED the over the top colors of the Z3 M’s

E39 M5 - the perfect combination of sport and luxury

I haven’t really taken very fancy pictures, the body work is about what you would expect after several years in a field and barn. It has seen some track abuse however due to its cosmetic state. Here it is at Grattan Raceway!

Huh? Sport is competition involving a (usually) physical skill.

Here is something slight more contemporary, but still rival the cringe-worthiness of the post-opening E30's rotting away

Not me or my pic but...

Got an internship on the other side of town and had just bought my first E30. First day on the way to work noticed some headlights in a field right by the internship in about waist high weeds. Didn’t know how special it was at the time but saw the boxed fenders, M3 logo and a busted out window with a pretty poverty…

Driving an AWD minivan over Engineer Pass and Imogene Pass above Telluride, and throughout the moab area, i agree with you.

What they did was wrong and disrespectful. Posting they should be raped is outrageous in the extreme!! What the hell is wrong with guys like that. Us normal guys have to speak up and against them because the blow back on us is very real, not to mention the affect it has on women (even more real).

Real men DO NOT…

Seriously. Wonderful, naturally-aspirated engine, (relatively) reasonable maintenance costs for an M-car, 6-speed only, and it just has this subtle, badass look to it. It’s like the classy gentleman of performance cars, and BMW hasn’t made anything like it every since. The E60 M5 was ugly and had loads of problems…

Why do I love my car?

Its weird and rare. That's about it.

Possible or not, heels have to be a bad idea. Barefoot would have to be preferable I would think. Sort of like driving drunk. I’m certain I *could* operate a car while tipsy, but it would be a bad idea for me to do so.

Ladies; real talk; is it even possible to drive in heels?

A similarly unbeloved car from the same era as the Nissan R390, also with similar story.
