Ferrari Mailing List: Re: OT - BMW M3

[LS (lashdeep]

 Isn't that the same story with the high performance 911 and  BMW models also?

They've been dethroned on the road courses by their competition and now are better suited to the dragstrip due to all of the electronics?

I never thought I'd see the day...

Clyde,

The GTR is being bought by any combination of the following:

a) Japanese/GTR fanboys

b) Big pocket players who like its daily driver performance

c) Exotic owners who pick up the GTR strictly for drag racing (1000+ hp) potential

Don't agree with it, but that's what I've seen.

I find it especially funny that the GTR is actually a competent track car but is used more often to win races on a different track....the strip.

I am with you there my last BMW was a 1987 M-6

BMWs now are just re badged Nissans with a touch of Nazi in them 

There is no more value in the marquee anymore 

The resale value is now like non existent 

Also on another point have you seen the price of the GTR ? Over $100K who are they kidding ?

Talk about being had 

My god if you had $100 K disposable income why in world would you buy that Jap Shit Box for $100 K plus with the grill of an alien to boot?

You think  Acura made a mistake with the NSX this is turning out to be the Japanese version of  the Titanic! 

They must be taking marketing notes from Audi!

In victory you deserve Champagne

In defeat you need it!

BMW has long lost it's way.

First, they should change their name to BTW.

They long have abandoned "motors" for "turbos".

If I wanted a turbo german car, I'd buy an Audi.

SYNTHETIC engine note?  That should be a capital offense.

I have the last "real" BMW ever made, the E9x M3.

I'll trade it in on another F car (post divorce) in a heartbeat.

My F430 was more reliable.

BMW even less - new BMW, that is.

The new M3s have 'shakers' on the firewall, and play noise through the

radio so that their new, smaller engines will, "...sound like V8s!"

Source: Car and Driver magazine. So fake! Who wants an M3 that sounds

like a Camaro? And who wants an M3 with a smaller engine? I'd bet BMW is

soon to find out!
