stripped e30 318 with not a new m3 motor but an 98 3.2 m3 motor with mid 200 hp but that is stock and i dont think that his motor is stock. It doesnt have 350 though . Full coilovers and the car is corner balanced and he does have r compund tires. Fast as balls and i want it.

i was always taught that it's more like 70% driver, 30% car.

Put it this way. It is better to be a fast driver than to have a fast car.

he just bought the new m3 motor. it's not in yet, or he's working on it. apparently there's trouble w/ the intake manifold fitting, or something like that, but someone else in the states has got it done, so he's working on it. and that's right, a 318, ma bad.
