drove my friends m3
HOLY CRAP this thing is fast!! he just bought a 2005 m3, 6sp, manual transmission, 333hp. we took it out on the freeway and i hit 100 in no time! i was still on the on ramp to the freeway when i was at 110. man this thing pulls soo hard. there was this maxima with fake hids tryin to mess with me. i was just testing how fast this thing could go so i flew by him like at 120. i then slowed down to speed limit to find out that he just cuts me off. i just downshift to 4th and pull on him so quick that he was left wayyy behind. i mean right when i floor it, i get instant power and it accelerates so fast. i couldnt believe that i actually got to drive it

Mmmmmmm..... M3.
Some dude around here used to have a boosted black M3. Now there's a car I might trade a kidney for.
May the memory of you driving that M3 be a light for you in dark places.

Rep Power: 322 Wow, your friend must not care about his stuff, just like dre2600 mentioned, you might want to observe the break in time maybe? You guys take it off the lot and roast the tires off it, is only going to decrease the cars life.

Rep Power: 286 I turbod an older M3 (95 i think) and it ran pretty good on 10-12 psi of boost. But overall, i didnt like the car. We had to drive it down Angeles Crest to drop it off with the owner, and it actually didnt handle well at all (i was not driving it). Way too much roll, horrible oversteer. But this car was beaten on a daily basis by the owner before i turbod it, so that may play a part.
But the new M3's seem quite a bit nicer. I hear they handle better also. Are they still the inline 6's?
