It is the E90 M3/M4 concept. It won't look like that unfortunately. However in a few years, I bet Dinan, AC Schnitzer, and Hartge could help you out :)
PS: Get real snow tires. You won't slip. I recommend either Bridgestone Blizzak WS50s, or the new hotness, Nokian Hakkapeliitta RSi. |

sooooo true. Look at the Focus RS...SWEET as hell when it came out!
Malek...it's not JUST about power. A BMW was posted...I replied that the G35 is a superior car...performance and luxery. A Mustang is a fast, cheap piece of crap. Have you ever sat in one? CHEAP, lol.
G35 is pure class...style, power, handling, and top rated by most publications and lauded by Canada's insurance industry.
It's simply in a class all it's own...head and shoulder above the competition, IMHO.
Mustang is nice...but it doesn't hold a candle to the G35 as an all-around great car and daily driver ;)
and Audi's are just high end VWs, fn_xtc...the S4 is sweet...if so many didn't blow up or fall apart, lol...VW has turned to the last several years (VW management ADMITS this). Look for the 5th Gen GTi to change that though ;)
BMW quality has really gone downhill too, as much as I hate to see it...
Mazda has brought out the two best new cars this year in their class with the Mazda3 and Mazda6, IMHO...very nice!
Vertigo knows where it's at...don't f around with winter tires and get some "super grip" ice tire that sucks on clean roads...90% of the winter is spent driving on cold, DRY pavement (unless you live in Barrie or something, lol)...so get a *performance* winter tire like the Blizzak WS50 (my EXACT recommendation too!) and you won't regret it (although they aren't cheap). |

Hahhah yes, K03s, hahahahah.
Also, MkV GTi? $30k+? No thanks, Mr. Pietschreider. |

VW won't be getting 30k from me...although they should still be nice cars with substantial improvements in quality.
I'm going to pony up a few more bucks this spring...I'm thinking something like:
WRX + turbo-back + Accessport
eg. http://www.cobbtuning.com/wrx/power-s.html (stage 2)
all-season fun :) |

I dunno Malek....only over the past few weeks Ford recalled over 800,000 SUVs and Trucks, and about 500,000 focus models...
Besides from personal experience after having an merican car i don't think i'll ever go back...I simply don't trust them anymore...
Everybody that I know that has european cars never complains about anything (but price of course :p) and everyone with north american always have "something" wrong once in a while.
However I do agree that the North American cars in Europe are a complete 180 from what we have here...much better! |

I think its a mild case of "the lawn is greener at my neighbours".
In Syria, american cars have a much better reputation than.... japanese cars, people rave about how they're strong, and good looking and reliable... I couldn't believe it.
i've had a ford for 18 months, treatening it like a dirty little whore always pushing it to the limit and drove about 50k kms in that period, no major trouble with it AND always starting in the worst weather. My father got a ford too and he's really happy with it also. We had a ford a while back a ty escort 86, that was truly a piece of crap. But I guess they've come a long way. |

Yeah that's cause in Syria (well actually the middle east and europe in general) it's a whole different car. First of all it's much much more expensive than what it costs here and second of all it's much better made and much more reliable. In Israel American cars are THE sorta speak too :haha: :stongue: But they are also much better made.
I guess I just had bad experiences...i'll need to see it to believe it :p |
