Hey guys i just got done talking to my buddy, he just bought a 99 M3, i didn't get much info out of him cause we talked quick (he's excited cause he just got it). So i forgot to find out if it was a coupe or a sedan, 5 spd or auto. Well i just got done doing some maintenaince to my car and she's running awesome, its a 88 Turbo II anniversary, all stock. I told him i wanted to race him to see how it went, do i have a chance to beat him...I'm honestly a better driver than him so i know if its a 5 speed i should be able to grab him, and i'm not sure how much the auto kills taht cars power. Its a friendly race but bragging rights are the best considering i got my car with 36,000 original miles, its an anniversary edition completely stock untouched for $2000, yes $2000. While his car, well i don't konw but i'm betting close to 10 times as much (that would equal $20000 which is probably low). Thanks for the info and i'll let you know how it goes later on tonight or tomorrow.

Yeah he let me take it for a spin last night and man does that thing move! What a car, handling luxury, and POWER! Down low he definitely will have me because its a rocket off the line, but if i can launch well we'll see what happens. Its been raining since I got up here so we haven't raced yet. I'll let you guys know what happens, by the way its a 2 door,5 speed. Later!

Yeah a guy who enlisted in the NAVY drove up in one yesterday. Brand New. Luckily I had my Fd out in the lot! He wouldn't look at me after he found out it was mine BUt those cars are mad fast! And all props to him for having to pay that much!

Yeah he's 19, just bought it, it has 24,000 miles on it, its a deep purple color with gray interior, he got it out the door for $25,000. He's making payments of $800 a month (Loan and insurance since he's 19 and from Boston!) Its his dream car so I give him props for making it come true!

Your 88AE TII only has 36,000 original miles.. and you bought it for $2000? Damn.. that's a deal. I think it will be close between the TII and the M3.. good luck with it.

My friend used to have a 5spd 2 door m3 (1995) the thing MOVED! and handles very well. I'd have to put the money on the m3 (270 stock hp) and the m3's aren't that heavy....probably around 3800?
