I currently drive a 1992 1jzgte single turbo'd sc300. I love the car, but with a new job, comes commute time. I'm thinking about getting an SMG e46 m3. I can't imagine spending 40+minutes in traffic in my SC. The 6 puck clutch does not make for easy engagement, and the ride is not all that comfortable.
Can anyone contribute?
What is there to think about? The E46 M3 is a better package out of the box than an SC300.. You do not have to cut & paste an E46 M3 to make it a beast.. If you can afford one get it.
i have to agree with the "common" part, it's everywhere here, but as long as you don't mind that it's a fine machine!
a prof once pointed out: 'if everyone (including you) has a high standard of living, do you really care?'
i have to agree, if i have an LP640, and so does everyone else on my street, I'm still ok with that, if we all have pools and spas and all the other nifty toys, i'm also ok with that
p.s. November isn't too far away. I'd wait until the new M3 comes out. There will be tons of people selling theirs and you might regret your purchase (as far as price goes).
2) A a white man in his thirties, I don't appropriately fit the stereotype for this car!
What is the stereotype for this car?? Inquiring minds want to know. I can only imagine if I made this statement, my *** would of been banned or given 55 points on my CL license.
dashocker how do you like the 335i? I was thinkin about gettin the 135i when it comes out and not gettin the m3.
The best car that I've ever owned to date. Totaly flat cornering, and instant power on tap. 300lb ft of torque from 1400 rpm to 5000 rpm is amazing.. Car does not feel lethargic at all. You know its sounds like a quieter version of the E46 M3 when you get it above 4000 rpm range. I am sure the 135 will be the same way. Trying to get used to the push button start. Got to put the thing-a-ma-jig in a slot to start the car lol..
