Sorry to hear/see! I hope everything works out for him!

Those M3's are indeed VERY fun cars to drive, can't just down talk them bc you drive a Lexus... it's all about personal preference in the end.

Lol, yeah, I chuckled when I saw that statment too. I just said, "huh?". Saying the M3 is "just so slow" is like saying the ISF is as well.

This isn't the first time I've heard of a major engine failure in an e92. That is really sad... even sadder that the warranty was up. But I do agree, this type of thing shouldn't happen. Has anyone's F blown up before due to racing or tracking?
