Right...I got excited when putting some PSC tires on my car. I can see how an MGW shifter can be exciting. I can't imagine getting excited about a coolant reservoir or cap.
The E92 is the last of the "good" M3s, with the E46 being the best. Once they went M4 with turbos, it's a drastically different driving experience. Don't be tempted just because the previous gen is good. You should find out for yourself of course and i'd be curious what you think.
No need to apologize or fear of getting slammed. It's an appropriate observation. The E92 has ITBs, a great induction noise, and a very unique exhaust note for a V8. BMW M cars of that era and before were the complete package. They were great driver's cars that appeal to everything you said. I...
Wow you had an E46 M3 CSL? How do you move up from that other than doing a manual swap? I love the E46 M3, especially the CSL. You can't beat that induction noise and that engine is glorious.
Streets doesn't have that long of straights so there's not a lot of cooldown area with high aero. With a heavy car like the Mustang that relies on massive tire for grip, consumables and engine temps can get up there if it's raging hot like it has been. I've only been there with my M3, but with...
I remember my first and last time there in September, probably 10 years ago. I told myself this is the last time i'm going to this track in the summer and will wait until October to begin tracking again. Props to you for tracking there in August! I will not track in >100 F heat!
I'm curious what people are willing to do to their cars. Then I saw and judge hard but they can do whatever they want. I'm happy it drew a response from you though. It makes me feel special. By the way, that's an interesting percentage to pull out of the air. I must've missed the study conducted...
LOL seriously...both stereotypes are true and bad. At least the Corvette is more of a sports car throughout its lineage. The same cannot be said for the POS rental car image.
LOL awesome reply. Driving enthusiasts are interested in the car, not how they appear to the public. It's great the GT350 team recognized the cheese of Mustang design was the laughing stock of other car enthusiast groups and went for a minimalist design. Let the car speak for itself.
Where's the paralysis? You don't like backing up decisions using data? When you hang photos on a wall, do you just slap them up there and eyeball it? Screw measuring! Just keep trying until you visually like it. Don't mind all the holes in the wall.
South OC here, but you're right that I don't go outside the GT350 forum. It'd be cool to organize a drive to the Cars and Coffee in San Clemente on Saturday mornings.
