Getting thinly-insulated battery powered cars to work optimally in temperatures well below zero is going to be...a challenge.

It is. One of the best motors i’ve ever had. 

And that’s a mild tune.

Sorry, under a grand. If you’re not into machining or self-installation, then the M3 is definitely for you.

Well, I guess your account of “lightly modding” differs from mine. As far as the “douche” thing goes, feel free to thumb through the comments on this thread left by M owners.

More turn signal jokes!

It’s nice that you have a special place to talk about how rad you are.

You are literally the guy i’m talking about.

Helical LSD is another grand.

Cool, so a set of V2 coils, bushings, and M-Performance brakes. I did all three along with tuning, exhaust, a clutch and wheels, and it was still less than an M car, with more mileage.

Turn signal jokes!

Maybe, if you’re only talking about the upgrading the motor.

To each his own, but I prefer the sound of my modified twin-turbo inline-six to it’s naturally aspirated V8 counterpart any day.

You know what’s fun? Lightly modifying a 335i to kick the shit out of most road-going M3's and still having money left over to spend on not being a douche.

As of this morning, the light-pole carnage is still sitting on the side of the road.

I need a “Truckle.”

BMW 128ci.

Looks like some kind of Citroen forklift, if I had to guess. 

My dad had a ‘93 that spent it’s first 400,000 miles towing film/TV industry generators around California, mainly San Francisco.

Fun Fact: Bald Head Island was the shooting location for the 1989 film “Weekend At Bernie’s.”
