insulting people? Howard, didn't you get in enough trouble below with your M5 school postings? Even Miata's get tons of looks. People love to look at convertibles!


The Z3 more of a WOW car than the M5?? I beg to differ. I turn more than a few heads on the Mass Pike when I zip by the corvettes, M3s, and Z3s!

Another post by a M5 wannabe!!

I have found that the M3 and M5 are only WOW cars to people that have read about them and love performance cars (like the people we associate with). And a lot of those people seem to be more WOWed by a 400hp V8. My Z3 turns more heads than my M5, or an M3 could ever do. It's more of a "general public" WOW car, like the Z8 and NSX. So don't be disappointed if people aren't WOWed by your car. To them it's probably just another 3 series (like the M5 is another 540).

Steve's car would sell quickly in California. Steve, how about running an add in the Bay Area Mercury? Or L.A. paper?
