Good Bye Z4 M Coupe Hello Evo X MR

Just wanted to say hello to everyone.

I gotta say I love every minute in the new car, especially since i don't have to shift in LA traffic anymore.

Been through lots of cars from Honda, Mercedes, Infinity, Mazda, Bmw. Before at track days the usual thought is look at those cheaters in the evo's. And now I'm one of them

Heres a picture of the old car.


No pics of the new one yet since its still stock and looks like every other white evo x.

Hopefully I'll be able to contribute positively in this community.

You'll see a total noob show up in beginner class, and the by mid day he'll be moved up to intermediate.

Yea some of my fav cars that I've owned were turbo, S13, FD3s, FC3s. Nothing beats the feeling of a kick of a turbo.

If your parents were looking for a small sports car, then yes. Its tiny and a PITA to get in and out of since its so low. But its fast and feels great at high speeds 125mph+. And if your parents get one you can borrow to pick up chicks in. as that was the strongest point about the car.

Well I would have loved to have kept the M Coupe, but having 2 small, 2 seater car was out of the question. The choice came down to keeping my tuned FD3s or the M coupe.

I just couldn't give up this car.



On a side note one of my close friends has one and people would start calling us the ambiguously gay duo as the M coupe resembles the car from that skit.

Parts are getting expensive for them. Especially used OEM parts. 1 interior door trim will cost about 500 bucks. Its getting crazy since they keep getting more rare.
