I'm not sure about yall; but I hate it when I see a M3 driving 40mph in a 60mph, holding up the line in the 1 lane road. Now i'm not saying that people with fast cars should race 24/7 but they should have fun riding an agile car. If people choose to race, put their lifes in danger, and risk getting their license suspended for 20 years, then I give them major props. And plus, it's on a straight away, so I don't want to hear anyone complaining that they are putting other peoples life in danger. What are the chances that they would get into a wreck? If you are unable to keep the steering wheel in a straight direction, then you might want to think about getting a lambo, regardless of your budget. | this is not an argument that can be won on these forums. marv made the point that people in socal drive fast regularly, but that doesn't make it ok or safe. __________________ 1997 TI Sport, Silver | | | 06-11-2008, 10:20 PM | #19 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: LA, Bellflower, CA Posts: 3,613 | Quote: Originally Posted by nyle this is not an argument that can be won on these forums. marv made the point that people in socal drive fast regularly, but that doesn't make it ok or safe. | right...

The point I was trying to get across is that I don't appreciate people who call another a Jackass all because they decide to floor it on a clear road with not a single car ahead of them. So I don't see what "innocent lifes" yall are talking about. Don't believe me? Watch the video again.

It's your opinion if you think I'm a jackass. But hey, if I ever see your face on the road, I'll be sure to play a little game of bumper tag with you. If you want to argue and debate, that's fine. If you want to start name calling, don't expect any sort of respect or mercy. | | | 06-12-2008, 03:26 AM | #22 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | guys cool it! argue over this in pms, no need to make it public. __________________ -Josh Sold-1995 318ti, Club Sport, Hellrot Sold-1996 318ti, Active Model, Boston Green Current- 1995 318ti, sport model, schwartz | | | 06-12-2008, 04:00 AM | #23 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Malvern, PA Posts: 373 | Quote: Originally Posted by Maverick1225 But hey, if I ever see your face on the road, I'll be sure to play a little game of bumper tag with you. | -1 Quote: Originally Posted by thesk8nmidget guys cool it! argue over this in pms, no need to make it public. | +1 __________________ 1997 TI Sport, Silver | | | 06-12-2008, 04:26 PM | #24 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Central NJ Posts: 2,440 | Quote: Originally Posted by Marv17 but irregardless... | Irregardless?

And it's not really a tuner at that, just a piggy back... It is not making any changes to the computer management itself, rather it is just faking signals to the computer... It instantly voids the warranty on the engine, all drive components, and all emissions components... Not to mention that the drive shafts and differentials on the 335 can't handle the extra power... I know people say these things are rock solid now with the extra oil cooler, but that is just not the case when you are running the really aggressive tunes out there. | | | 06-13-2008, 12:36 AM | #27 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 | Quote: Originally Posted by Maverick1225 But hey, if I ever see your face on the road, I'll be sure to play a little game of bumper tag with you. | I think that comment moves you down to the "jackass" category you're trying so hard to defend | | | 06-13-2008, 01:22 AM | #28 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Greenville, SC Posts: 9,356 | Com'on guys.
