Looks nice, I wouldn't buy it, but it still looks nice. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

*LanceS13* · 10-09-2001, 11:07 AM

I will own one some day....my very own M3. I'll scrape up $60k somewhere.

i have been born and raised on bmw's

my father has had 2 and gave away an old 2002 because he garaged it and some kids beat  it up.

i almost bought and 87 325is with a racing computer and did 225kph when i test drove it, fastest i've ever driven, but it had high mileage and was in a bad accident and not repaired fully.

i love most bmw's but i think before i get my m3, and my m3 coupe roadster i will be getting an Audi S4

i read in a Euro car mag that the next gen Audi S4's coming to the states will be tuned like rally cars and will be faster than the ones they get in Europe,

i would imagine it will be about 300hp stock and Audi's AWD, in a sexy sedan.......

you talk about wiping drool from you chin, i'll be reaching for some kleenex for an unrelated mess if i keep thinking about my S4

Zexel · 10-09-2001, 05:32 PM

that's a good point misnomer!!  we have a few at my school, bunch of rich kids own them.  if anyone of you own then, I'm not saying anything bad.  just mommy and daddy bought there's, and they're ownly like 16.  then they get in a wreck, and want a 5.0.  but AYNWAYS.  I like Beamers, they're nice cars.  got to ride in a 2001 something, don't remember what model it was.  but man it was NICE!!!!!  I'd take one.

S13Grl · 10-09-2001, 05:34 PM

As a car-lover, I have a certain level of respect for them (as quality-crafted cars). They don't fall into the same category of love that Skylines, Zs, Supras, and WRXs fall into, though... especially not into the one 240s fall into! You guys know what I mean...

NoLimitZ31 · 10-09-2001, 05:40 PM

Not a big fan of BMWs..  since everyone at school/in this town owns one (or two) and you can't really tell the diff between some models (kinda have to look at the badging)...  Besides, they aren't the best in terms of performance for your money.

I also HATE, HATE Mercedes..  all of their cars look the same and are overpriced.

On a side note, a kid at school has an AMG tuned CLK 55...  a $100,000 car.  That is just not right, esp. if you drive like a granny.  I wish my mommy would give me $100,000 to blow on my Z..  I wish we HAD $100k to begin with.

JeffNJ · 10-09-2001, 06:05 PM

I saw a black BMW850 at my friend's college last weekend.  At college.  In the student lot, not less.  I was disgusted.  Please, everyone.  Feel my pain.

NoLimitZ31 · 10-09-2001, 06:30 PM

Jeff, you live in Hackensack?  I live like 10 minutes away in Tenafly!  One of my good friends lives in Hackensack.  He has a black 1990 300ZX with a crack in the windshield.

my240likenoother · 10-09-2001, 08:01 PM

i like the Z-3 hatch that thing is nasty the 2.8 in it

bing · 10-09-2001, 08:10 PM

850's are beautiful cars, they only discontinued them because they had V12's and the cars were too heavy, i downloaded a sweet pic of a dropped red 850, yeow it's it sweet.

i will allow no bmw bashing here!!!!!!!!

FastNissan · 10-09-2001, 08:31 PM

I need to scan the pics I took at the Porshce Owners Club event at Phoenix International Raceway, there was a 993 Carrera RS with a sticker on the back pissing on BMW.  The guy runs a dealership and this was his fast car.  His slow car was a brand new 996 Carrera which he blew the engine of.  Even as a Porsche fan I have to say that's a nice looking car.

rubbersidedown · 10-09-2001, 08:36 PM

BMW.. eh. big deal. They're nice cars and all but they just seem too much like luxury cars and i'm not too big on that.

*LanceS13* · 10-09-2001, 08:47 PM

The M3 has the best of both worlds.  It's a luxury car...but it's a sports car, too.  And on top of that, it looks #### good.  Plus I believe there's a supercharger that will give even more umph to an already strong (333hp) powerplant.  The M5, M Roadster, and M Coupe are nice, too.

bing · 10-09-2001, 09:27 PM

the company racing dynamics, they have a site under the name, does crazy versions of almost every BMW imaginable, they are associated with bmw directly and you can factory order their modifications, internal amd external ones, and have them on your car before you get it

i belive they can take most noramlly aspirated bmw's up to 450+ hp, but that probably includes their supercharger, they do the 850, Z8, M5, and all the others too, BMW has a bigger after market than nissan does as well, you'd be suprised at all the stuff and sites you can check.

they also made these BMW movies, i saw one directed by Guy Ritchie, it has Madonna in it  too.

you can view them at www.bmw.com

groundzero · 10-09-2001, 09:49 PM

Nice, very nice structure...Some cars go to far, and work with the front of the car and leaves the rear of the car looking somewhat not good looking...But if I won the lotto, Im for sure getting a car like that and a diablo.

Archangel · 10-10-2001, 02:16 AM

i'm with lance, bmw is a very nice blend of luxury and performance.  I used to be a valet, and i got to drive alot of them.  (then i got into my 91 dodge to drive home <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('> ).  
A bmw is no replacement for a pure sports car, but they make one helluva daily driver.

dave2u · 10-10-2001, 03:41 AM

They all look the same. But that one doesnt. Thats gorgeous. I just like to see them with fat tastey wheels and a meaner look. You do see them about and i have to say when they are huge and fat and mean and tinted but still classy with an M3 or M5 on the back i do stir a little. And thats ironic cos its usually them and everyone else stirring at my SX. I`ve only had it a few months and eveybody in everything stirs at it.

(Edited by dave2u at 3:47 am on Oct. 10, 2001)

bing · 10-10-2001, 12:30 PM

everyone says cars look the same when they dont really like them,

people ask me if my car is a prelude (90 black 240sx coupe)

umm... sorry no im not gay!

once again BMW's and most german cars, #### almost all european cars ( except british ones) are amazing.

once i accumulate enough wealth i wont have to buy japanese cars,

Audi, BMW, Porsche, Bentley, Ferrari, Lambourgini, Rover, VW, and the list goes on and on,

if you can get your hands on the magazine entitled

CAR

you will get a taste of what European cars really have to offer,

the very best cars in the world you cant even get pictures of in North America

TVR, Alfa Romeo, Lotus, etc.

in the back of the CAR mag, they rate every single car available in Europe, they absolutley laugh at the cadillac, trans am, corvette, saying "at least they are are cheap".

japanese cars get respect because they are very good, but european cars are where its at

vancouvers14 · 10-10-2001, 04:33 PM

just stay away from z3's.  i had one for a month, and i've never felt less safe.  also, fake leather seats, and zero trunk.  ladies loved it, but the car was crap.  stay with the 3 seies at least

what do you think about the z-3 (m-3) hatch???

*LanceS13* · 10-10-2001, 05:53 PM

I think those little M Roadsters are pretty cool looking...even if they do look a little weird.  It's more practical and looks safer than the M Roadsters (Z3), but still manages to look sporty.  

my240likenoother · 10-10-2001, 06:07 PM

they r faster that the z-3

*LanceS13* · 10-10-2001, 06:23 PM

They should have the same engine...but I guess w/o the drop top apparatus, the Coupe is lighter.

bing · 10-10-2001, 09:38 PM

the z3's are actually not that fast, and like someone said earlier, they are not very safe, they have the same rear suspension as the E36 chasis which is a little outdated by BMW standards,

the M coupes i believe have 280 hp, but i could be a few off, who can concentrate on bmw when they are driving a 240sx.

the CAR mag i mentioned earlier also agrees that the z3, is the weak link in the bmw line up
