What is an ipad?

?............?

Uh

Kind of a big deal.

You missed the sarcasm and hardly a big deal IMO. Old tech with clever marketing, nothing more.

 

That's all Apple has ever been since the original iMac.

Here you go, dem beats; a 1974 M2 with a Gen 1 M3 motor:

Speaking of Gen 1 M3's:

That this is way too awesome for me. And about the size of my shoe.

Speaking of Gen 1 M3's:

Awesome. I love how it looks. I would hate the ride.

I've been looking at my next car being an M3, but to get them for a semi reasonable price they're usually high miles.. and to boot I want a manual..

 

I've never had any german car, how is the performance upgrading? I'd want a new fast-ish car that I don't have to spend 10k on mods to gain a bunch.

Ze Germans know how to build autos

Which generation M3 are you looking at Julian?

[S.DeYoung 968]

Very affordable Ferrari:

2001-2006ish 

They could be had for around 18-20k

but for 9k more I could go for an m5 and get more vroom vrooms from an 06

Read the last 30pages from the hop. Lol.

My exact thinkinga while back. The E46 M3 isn't fast. But it is beautiful to me and fun. I don't fit in the 4 door however. The SMG is...... Well I didn't like it in that car. Get the manual. It will be more fun.

I just fell madly in love with the E60 M5 but the upkeep can be really spendy depending on your luck. I doubt you will want performance modifications for a while, but everything gets boring at some point. The SMG in this car is amazing, but can eat clutches. The V10 drinks a little oil, and needs some TLC. I love the car, just not sure if I want to pay for the upkeep.

If you want to shit your pants. And have a sport wow car, get that RS 4. 10 years ago that would have been THE car.

[///M5 2,833]

I hate them, but not compared to what else has been recommended.

 

 

It might be on the ticket.  The W actually told me today that she would rather me spend the extra on a car I would really be happy driving with lower miles than to get a new car for herself.

 

 

Broke my heart.

 

She did say she would steel the RS4 if I got it, and take it everymorning before I wake up.  For what ever reason she finds that car to be her unicorn.

Then that's the car I would buy if it were me

It is a scary car to drive. The clutch was actually tough to work. It needed what felt like 2 feet of travel.

 

It also was known as the single most expensive to own vehicle for a little while. All kinds of problems. 

 

It would have been my dream car when I was in my teens.

maybe just a clutch adjustment? What were the main problems with the car?

Well, I would have to look it up as it may not be the same year.... however a lot of those RS models used a tuned down lamborghini motor.  And before they got the hang of it, tuning it down was wrecking them.  And they were destroying the gearbox and quatro system.

 

90% were covered under warranty, but from what I read they didn't fix anything.  Just replaced and then everyone knew that if they drove it to 60% of it's ability the thing would eat itself.

 

Again I don't remember what years, but it was horrible growing pains and used really really spendy Lambo parts.

That was the 6

I came VERY close to getting an RS4. Liked it more than the M5 actually.

In the manual it was unpleasant but fun. Only good for playing race car driver and nothing else.

Getting slanty on a road with that AWD causes some amazing heart palpitations.

[dem beats 1,223]

You are probably right Sean. RS 6 sounds closer.

BTW how did you fit into the RS4?????

I was hunched over.

[dem beats 1,223]

Worse was trying to get my shoulders folded up to work the wheel and the stick.

I keep forgetting to comment. The clutch was shot in the one you drove. Sure there is pedal, but you don't need to use it all normally.

Gangsta lean

[///M5 2,833]

Actually not really necessary, ze Germans allow the seat to go low and back. In many regards it felt more roomy than the E60. I don't have shoulders anywhere near yours though.

[///M5 2,833]

What killed that for me was I could not put a car seat behind me, it was essentially a 3 door car.
