Last time I checked it was the first person across the 1/4 mile mark.. not the one who was going fastest once they got there.

Who cares about the performance difference. M3 is pimp. If I could afford one Id take one over my EVO without a second thought. Nice choice man.

Congrats on the M3.

Be careful with the engine. I heard the M3 engines break. It's something with their design. BMW will take care of it free of charge.

Even though it's under warranty, it's a pain in the behind to have it in the shop for them to change the engine out.

Thanks everyone who congradulated me on my new car I will hopefully get pics up soon.

As for you haters out there specially those who have never driven the M3 you have no clue what your talking about so STFU. And for those who have you understand why I went with the M3 for its style class and comfort that the Evo will never have. Evo is a track car hands down it was made for performance and thats what it does. M3 was made for 2 things performance and luxury and it does both well it may not pull quite as hard as the Evo off the line but after about 60 the M3 pulls much harder than the Evo and has a much better top end.

M3 produces a much more even powercurve due to the fact that it isn't turbo'd and thus gives a much smother ride and more even pull and as for the reject who made the little dick comment one day you will grow up and realize the difference between a real man in a classy ride and a screwball kid in his wanna-be econobox.

Last but not least is warrentee not only does BMW cover all parts on my car INCLUDING clutch and even brake pads but they also do all my maintenence oil changes etc for me free of charge for the next several years and no this isn't something I had to pay extra for.

I'm not hating on the Evo cause ask anyone who knows me I loved the car it was great fun but seriously M3 is just a big step up maybe not all in performance but in overall car value, class style and ride.

Thanks again for all you guys out there who support me in this I can't wait to go on the next ride with you guys and get some good pics of our cars together.
