E46 m3

[Ekona]

You sure? My mate's is def Estoril, and it's just an early SMG cab AFAIK.

[Arran]

Estoril is available on the m3 as is velvet blue

I think when your modding german you need to get out of JDM mode.

 

CSL ducktails are always a winner on an e46

 

no no no you just go JDM on your german,

 

[Sarnie]

They look awful.

 

 

IMO.

Bloody awful

[Ekona]

Super crappy awful.

[stuarty]

Z4 M coupe is best of both worlds imo!

Performance of the E46 M3 but with a few CSL extra's as standard, including the CSL's awesome breaks. And 2 seats and coupe styling like the 350Z.

Don't hold grudges or anything do you.

BMWs' numbering system on their cars bemuse me, but if this is the same car I recently drove on one of these supercar days, it was a V8, on a 2011 plate, this is an awesome machine, full stop.

 

It's got the lot, I would've considered buying one, but the deciding factor was it was a semi auto, not for me, but to keep my Mrs safe, she would melt into a greasy spot trying to fathom it, absolutely no negatives from me (ok a bit slab sided)

e46 is the one before that.

A CSLs brakes is its weakest point apart from its boot floor

Why didn't you buy a manual then?

[wizard]

Whoever said that the E46 M3 sounds better then the 350z needs a hearing aid!

[Ekona]

Erm, it does though. Stock for stock, or modified for modified, the straight-six beats the V6 i reckon.

[wizard]

sounds like a bag of nails buddy. M3 load of shite stock. I'd rather hear the sound of a tractor.

[Nero_slk]

Sound wise... I had e36 m3, and 350z at the moment....both had CAI and different exhaust

Uncomparable....

350z makes an amazing burble, sounds nice all the way to 6.5k ....

M3 on the other hand is a different beast, sounds normal on lower revs, but once you hit the magic 5.5k rpm ...uhhh... my one used to scream like a girl :DDDD from 5.5k to 7.5 due to dave F induction kit...

 

So sound wise both cars are good enough to be driven without a stereo

At least you can hear the M3, better than the wheezy exhaust on the 350

You should hear a standard jdm zed then, it's like a bloody mondeo

I loved the DSG (?), and I think this model is better suited to the auto box, although I haven't tried a manual one, the gear changes were seamless and in the end, a manual would not be the one I would have wanted really. Then again, BMW is not me, too many seats and a bit slab sided in looks, just a bit plain.

[Ekona]

I've not tried a manual, and the DCT version I bought for 24 hours just wasn't that exciting for some odd reason. 400bhp, V8, well built, good looking, but still didn't float my boat. I have no idea why.

[Richie-B]

No I think that just proves my point

no no no you just go JDM on your german,
