yay where have you been? Seen a bunch here and 2 have come to the Land Rover I work at. Sweet cars. I still think the styling was better on the last generation but you can't argue w/ the performance of the newer ones.

LOL...have you been locked in a barn? They are crazy cars. I'd love to have a 7-speed SMG transmission in my car. :P

that's not too bad. my grand prix weighs a supposed 3559lbs and around 300whp would get me into the 12's.

nope... I don't understand the bimmers... I mean there is plenty of alternative on the market that is made in usa :-)

And for one is the new z06 corvette... I would take that over the bimmer and on the saved money buy a civic to keep the miles off :-)

Speaking of the new z06 vette. A guy in town just bought one and took it to the track this last weekend. He already destroyed the clutch. What a dumbass! You'll never understand the joy of owning a BMW until you buy one. :P
