Blast from the past! Looks nice.

Nice! One of the worst handling bmw's from the factory, but you're already on the way to sorting that. Really subtle looking considering the power.

What wheels are they?

Friendly mot tester required. Selling it will be a ball ache with no mot.

We've got several devices at home, across both operating systems. Neither is buggy/laggy/unresponsive in the slightest. Not understanding how to use either OS doesn't make it 'tat'.

Just ordered the iPhone se for the wife, I'll just keep buying Sony compacts.

An m4 overtook me this morning, max attack. Such a dull noise. The e90 sounds immense in comparison.

Glad you like them fella. Sorry didn't reply to your pm, but my world got flipped turned upside down. Etc

There was a chap at spa with a garage of immense toys, including a silver f50, thought it may have been the same chap.

Not a silver f50?

Christ on a bike. Singer, CRT, and an LFA. Money and superb taste. Rare.

If I had the space for 2 cars, I'd have an auto and a manual. But for 1 car to do everything I want, Manuel works better for me. But I very rarely have to deal with traffic.

Yeah, that's beyond hearsay. Apparently a forum member spoke to him, and he confirmed it. But that was last year, and nothings happened and the entire production run has been spoken for. I've no doubt the next generation will offer both, the gt4 was a test bed to see how manual would be...

There's never been a pdk option. The Clubsport (track only) has pdk only, which is where the confusion seems to have crept in on forums etc. I've not read anything on any reputable site about Porsche offering pdk, unless something has changed recently. Which would be odd given that gt4...

You get more interaction from a manual. There's no debate there. Yes dsg is better for chasing lap times. Yes it's better if you're stuck in traffic. But is dsg more fun when you're driving down a b-road? No. That's why Porsche have done the gt4 and the R. That's why a manual box is the biggest...

He's got fully functional limbs. Correct gearbox.

That won't be due to front /rear balance.

The grip level is low enough that it's fun on a daily basis. Ffs it's easier to skid than an mx5. Razor sharp motor, makes a good sound, rwd, lsd, great driving position, brakes that terrify on every quick drive. Yes a c63 is stunning when acting the brummy and driving at 20mph trying to...

M3's aren't that fun might be the silliest thing I've read on cs.

Genuine question. Given the similarities between the Meg chassis and 197, what's the benefit of turboing a 197 over buying a reliable r26 and all that offers?

E39 is a great drive. Shrinks around you, but it's much more relaxed than an e46/90. Engine is lovely, but again really laid back compared to the e90. The f80 is strange. It feels like it was developed for a less potent lump, and then the turbo was bolted on at the end.

This. The V8 isn't a torquey lump, it's got a very different feel to the e39 for example. And in terms of torque to weight ratio, it's hardly better than the e46. In comparison, the f80 feels like a monster! But I'd still take an e90 or e46 over an f80 as a drivers car.

Opportunities to actually do that are limited on a daily basis. But I don't think folks buy an m3 for it to be massively exciting on the commute. You buy them for those times when you can push it. Day to day, it just slips into your life like a slightly angry 330.

It's a manual v8, rwd, with a diff. Lights? Really?

I'd take it as far as possible. Luckily it was a small Pebble and you're traveling slowly. Larger stone at a higher speed could genuinely cause an accident.

Lovely. Brilliant spec. Almost as much torque as my Slowda.

It's dct in the BMW I think.

Nice nice nice.

Saloon? Hero. Manual or paraplegic spec box?

His videos are awful. Shows how difficult the job Harris etc do, is. No 208 either?
