Originally posted by Inertia also, newer (dont recall if the older ones do too, not a big BMW fan) have that small grill on the sides under the rearview mirrors, with the ///M emblem... few of the wannabe's, or i dont think ive ever seen one try to rip this off...

heh heh, I should get a fake M symbol for the side of my Accord, lol. I'll be the laughing stock of town, but it would sure as hell be funny, lol.

EDIT: And I'll also put a TypeR badge on the back of the car.

Either

a. driver sucked
b. that wasnt an M3

Probably, check out the specs.

According to that, the car shoulda had around 240 horses or so.

ya it now that that guy said it..im sure it was a fake. My car has 130hp. totally WEEEEEEK.

i miss my Contour svt 240 ponys under that v6

ya the new m3 has the grill, but like i said before this looked like an old m.....and it was a 318 probably

Well, it isn't true. I have an 1986 BMW E28 M535i (which is a true Motorsport car) and it has 2 exhausts.

Some other BMW M cars with 2 (two) exhausts :

BMW E12 M535i
BMW E28 M5

And if we count cars made/related by BMW Motorsport it is possible to add :

BMW E9 CSL
BMW E10 2002 Turbo
BMW E23 745i (South African modell)
BMW E30 320is

Use your mind before saying stupid facts about BMWs.

----

About your car : it is a Subaru Impreza WRX STI Version VI ? Well, for this car the 0-60 mph time : 4.8 sec. The latest BMW Motorsport car (BMW E46 M3 CSL) has the same 0-60 time. Can you tell me how will you it beat this car with your WRX ?

And i am talking about cars with factory settings. Even a BMW can be tuned to a 500+ HP car. Also don't forget that the new BMW E60 M5 will be out in 2004 with a 500-550 HP engine. Rumors says that the CSL version of the M5 engine will do about 580 HP. Will you beat this car with your lame WRX STi ?

Congrads on your knowledge of cars, but you fail to recognize: a 1990 Accord would eat all those cars alive on the track.

Would you STFU about your Accord already?

Score.

US spec E36 M3 had about 245HP, early euro M3s had 281 and later 321HP (we kept the best for ourselves ). But even the US spec M3 can outrun most ov+f the shit on the road...If were talking mazdas then stock vs stock only a RX-7 is able to compare to an M3

Respect. And it would have spanked an M3 on the highway... I have one (a 2002 M5) and have raced a few M3s.... it just pulls on them over 100. Don't get me wrong... both are awesome cars. It's like they say... there is no replacement for displacement. Oh, and no, I'm not an American Muscle car freak... God, far from it.

Like others said, probably not an M3 OR maybe he just didn't want to punch it. Who knows?
