hard to imagine. they just got those cars!

'am really shocked at the piss-poor time of the new 2001 coupe. you'd think there would be an advantage with holding gear longer.

the more surprising thing is the low trap speed. i'd expect something closer to 105mph. at least. starting to see new m3s on the road more and more.

'am starting to see a bunch of m3s on the road and they look pretty nice. am starting to be a firm believer though, that if you're going to spend 50k for a trumped up, heavier, luxe-M3, you have enough money to spend 10-15k more and to get a beautiful used 993 or a year old 996.

have started to test drive the heck out of 993s and an extended test of the 996. there is a difference and it's not just the little emblem.

cheers, all
