    M3

    Yesterday when I left work for lunch, I was about to get on the freeway, when a newer... (05 or 06??) M3 was right beside me. Looked at each other, then looked at the light. As soon as the light went green we both took off. I launch decently, had to let off a little to get traction, once it hooked up, I punched it again and started to spin them a little... threw it in second, and by now I had put 2 cars on him. We finally slowed down, only because we had to, there was slower traffic in front of us, seeing how it is downtown san jose.

    I know it wasnt much of a kill, but the guy was cool about it, he drove by me and gave me a thumbs up.

    What's your definition of "performs"? They do 5.5 to 60 and 13.5 quarter miles stock, and you would crash trying to stay with it through the first corner. Not all of us judge a car by how fast it goes in a straight line.

    well i do not think the M3 is a pos i am sure it is not my grandma has one haha. But yes there are a lot better cars to spend the money on like a c5 zo6 for example. But it comes down to personal prefrence if you want a high quality car that rips at the track and road coarse and still have your warranty and have a lot of money to spend then the m3 is a choice. but is is not a pos.

    Actually, the M3 costs more because it is a much better car overall than an American muscle car. Believe it or not, straight line acceleration times are not the most important thing to most car buyers. Why do you think Mustangs killed the GM muscle cars (Camaro/Firebird) in sales volume. It sure wasn't because Mustangs were faster in a straight line, because most of them weren't.
