I'd rather get the R32 Golf for that price and have all-wheel drive. __________________ '99 Dinan M3 | | | 07-12-2005, 06:20 PM | #10 | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 | mmmmm ... vaporware .... maybe the new "m1" will be our ticket (if they produce it and if we get it) __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles current mods: bilstein sports, bavauto springs, e30 m3 LCABs, solid metal ball joints, bavauto RSMs w/reinforcements, e30 3.73 LSD & halfshafts, supersprint cat-back exhaust, turner rear sway bar reinforcements, IE poly subframe & RTABs + camber/toe kits, powdercoated e36 32x front calipers, sport mirrors, H&R 28mmF/19mmR sway bars, x-brace, auto solutions SSK w/poly bushing upgrade, BMW CD43 head unit, DICE HD Radio w/iPod integration and "stealth" HD antenna, staggered style 68s, orange electronic TPMS, leather arm rest, JT Designs metal undertray acquired and awaiting install: heated seat kit, cali top switch relo, lumbar support kit, park distance control kit, heated washer nozzle kit, m-coupe rear subframe, trailing arms, differential, and halfshafts, m-coupe front/rear brakes with master cylinder, under hood light kit, mud flaps, rear sun blind, auto-dimming rear view mirror, tilt steering wheel retrofit, apexcone 5000K HIDs with 55W ballasts 2002 X5 4.4 Sport Package, 53.5k miles Current Mods: e46 m3 steering wheel | | | 07-12-2005, 06:52 PM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: state college, pa Posts: 3,431 | M1 unlikely (at least in name), http://www.autoblog.com/entry/1234000733048825/ and the a3 was one of the most unentertaining cars i've ever driven. the only plausible replacement for the ti is the wrx, but i have yet to try it out. the benz compact is fast but the feedback is poor compared to our little E36/5s. | | | 07-13-2005, 04:56 PM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: San Francisco Posts: 308 | the wrx is fun. my friend has one. when i was trying it out, i was shocked to see that we were going 110mph--->its a smooth ride 'cuz it felt like were doing 55 or 60. also it was the turbo. the M1 looks like that Chrysler retro mini van thing! sorry but | | | 07-13-2005, 08:32 PM | #13 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: state college, pa Posts: 3,431 | how's the clutch feel on it? i really don't like the e46 3er because it feels japanese (soft, poor feedback). i love the e30 clutch (heavy, you can feel the friction point well). anyway, it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than drive a fast car slow. | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
