I love German cars too. I always did! I love Audi and top of the line more than Volkswagen. They are so much fun! Too bad some models don't make it here in the U.S.

Yea so this one time my friend test drove an M3 at this shady dealership n I got to ride in the back of it n during the test drive i shit my pants. Thats right I shit my pants. BMW M3's are the greatest car ever made in the history of cars. I would agree with you about VW's n Audi's being sweet but they both have FWD/AWD which ruins a car in my opinion. Why have complete control of the car when you can power slidE!

The obvious answer: Import!!! That's what I would do? Also another question: Is it illegal in the US to have only metric/SI units in the car (eg. speedometer: only kilometres/hour, fuel meter: only litres, odometer: kilometres only)? If it's not illegal, will it still pass inspection because it doesn't have US measuring units on it? Also, how much does it cost to import a car that's not available in the US? If you buy the US-market version of a car that's also sold elsewhere (mainly the home market), what's the difference between it and it's home market counterpart? Another thing: if the car that you plan to get passes inspection in an overseas market, will you still need to get inspected as soon as the car is back in the US again, even if you don't need inspection yet? Any answers on any of these questions will ber greatly appreaciated.

FYI the Audi RS6 is comming to the US. it will use a 450hp twin turbocharged V8 making 450HP with AWD and DRC(dynamic ridec control...evens out rhe body roll around corners...sorta like the new BMW 7 series) you can reserve one at audi dealers, my borther knows a guy who has already done so. if you happen to have a spare $85k i suggest you do so also. and it will be a sedan, not the wagon thank god.

they are also going to be making the RS4 in the US. they are stuffing the v8 into that too, although i forgot if it will be turbo-ed, i think it will be because the new s4 will have about 370HP(to spank the M3 once again)[dont you just love german pissing contests, they make for great cars ] and the RS4 is gonna have over 400

freaking uber cars

But M3's have straight up horsepower which is totally sweet. Turbos and superchargers will go through wear n tear n they will break after awhile. They're also expensive to replace. Straight up horsepower is the way to go n BMW does that with all their cars. That's why they're the best car company ever made.

Originally posted by jinxed84 thats where the argument for japanese cars comes in with the price to performance ratio...i mean look at the nissan 350z almost 290HP for $26k base yikes! that thing will beat the pants off any comparitively priced german cars. and the current unfortunate american craze of the honda civic and putting as much plastic and a park bench on the back of it...to some people that is thier dream car, in the end its all a matter of opinion. for every german car i named some people could name a japanese for the same category

i guess that's why e36 ('95-'99) m3's with 240 crank ho stays with it side by side, and an e46 (current style) 330 beats a g35 in a 1/4 mile ( 330 has 225 hp; g35 has 270) BMWs are one of the best cars;however when i'm 40-50, ill get myself an e55 amg
