That's awesome. You probably ran into my old man at Englishtown a couple of times, he was there every weekend for decades straight. Shame they closed down.

Mpack23 let us know how the test drives go and how you come out feeling.

Yeah it was bad news. Have not been back there since the 1990's when I moved out of Jersey. Ran my first sanctioned race there the late summer of 1965 in a '62 409/409. Gotta love the song

Have had 4 song cars, must be a personal defect.

i'm selling my f30 335 for an e92.

I drove a comp pack e92 and it rode significantly better than my 335 without the m adaptive suspension (this is standard on the M3 comp). I've had a e36m and e46m before. The f30 is a good daily, but when you want to drive it fast it doesn't give me the feedback and instant response that i want.

thought about trading in my 335 for one that has a manual, adaptive suspension, lsd, etc. but i don't think its worth the depreciation. non-m cars just dont hold value like older M cars.

So I checked out the M3 today and it didn't disappoint. It really looked clean. There were a bunch of F80s and F30s there and looks wise it it held up imo. I Initially thought it will look old or dated sitting right next to it's younger siblings.

The sound was UNBELIEVABLE tho was a bit disappointed on the test drive coz the dealer guy kept telling me to slow down and stay within the road speed limit which was around 40-45mph. Needless to say I didn't get to experience it's full power. The ride was very nice as well. Not too rough imo. Overall it was much more impressive than I imagined.

It was hard to walk out pretending I didn't want it so bad.

Nice! Glad to hear you liked it. It's definitely a hell of a car, and IMO looks great no matter what it's parked next to, like you said. Sounds like you're leaning towards the M3, but do update if/when you make a decision.

No low end on the m3 and it'$$$$ older. I'd splurge and get LCI with inline six.

I mean, I was talking about White exterior black interior, but a CF splitter, mirror caps and spoiler wouldn't be bad either

Lol when it comes to aesthetics, splitters and white angel eyes are my only must-haves. But I'm debating on doing the angel eyes or wheel spacers. Thanks brutha!

Mmmm I don't know, I kind of like the orange-y angel eyes. It matches the car in a way; probably an unpopular opinion lol.

Either way, cool to see you go through the decision process, get the car, and get right to work

I know man I'm undecided now on the angel eyes. There's a long ass thread on it too (or a poll) on the M3 forum I have to check it out
