I have a performance package 2001 BMW 330CI 5 speed. Best fucking car I've ever driven next to an M3. Clocks in at 210 horses to the rear wheels, with ~225 horses before transmission/flywheel interference.


For a comparison of performance, I can beat my friends 2008 WRX, and he's a very good driver.


I drive a 2003 WRX.

He must not be a "very good driver" in order to lose to a 330ci. I hang with M3's, pretty much the equal match to my car. Although I do have all the exhaust, intake, racing clutch/flywheel, short shifter, brakes... Stock computer/boost controller. There's no way you could keep up with me, all cars come down to the dummy behind the wheel.

-My stats, 315 awhp on awd dyno,

0-60 5.2sec
0-100 7.5sec
1/4 mile 12.6 @ 130

I'm tired of it as a daily driver, the interior is stripped, and it's rally prepared, I'm planning on buying a 09 Impreza, hopefully this week.

I'm definately a Subaru guy, repairs and parts are few and cheap. Idk how they got the "expensive to maintain" labeling. I have 120k on mostly stock parts, and I beat the shit out of it.

-Like the SC300, good drift car.

-That v6 mitsu isn't turbo'd is it? What's up with the air cleaner sticking above the hood? And if it does have the 500+ hp, there's no way it's making use of it on a front engine fwd layout.

Really nice!!!!!! Omg...
Why does he NOT ever tell people the Story of Jupiter (that's what I call that thing)? How he came to him and all? Because, if it hadn't been for how events unfolded, and if it hadn't been for how his wife just fell in LOVE with that bike, he wouldnah have it now. He'da had a Sabre (still a nice bike, I'd love to try riding one, but it's not the same as the VTX). I can now get it off the kickstand EVERY TIME. :D

My dear, you got some esplainin' to do.

no, my friend is a great driver. his car is bone stock, 08 models had NO aftermarket support when they came out, which is when he bought it (sept/oct 07). i can beat him from a roll, it doesn't matter. he takes me from a dead stop due to awd and forced induction. of course you're going to beat me with 315awhp, but i seriously doubt you hang with M3's from a roll. M3 would take you, and that's a normally aspirated engine. your forced induction gives you an advantage from a dead stop, but do it from a 60mph roll and the m3 will take you in 2nd gear.

p.s. nice car you have, 03 models are the only wrx/sti models that i like. i like the 08 hatchback sti's as well, but an 03 wrx is one of the few japanese cars i'd gladly buy.
