Alright, I didn't like the M3 Convertible. Fine. But BMW invited me to Spartanburg, SC to race all their cars around an autocross track. I drove an M5, M3, 760i (yes, 760 not 745) and the X5 4.8. Let me tell you, the PHATTEST of all of them was by far the M3. You can definitely tell the difference between the Coupe and Convertible. That extra weight in the convertible kills the performance of the car. Anyway, because of Junior, I traded the blue Viper in for this M3 Coupe. I really dig this M3. Also, I got the SMG transmission. I thought it would be a cop-out after spending so much time and money learning how to drive a manual transmission but this freakin' transmission is COOL. For all you 645 owners out there saying I'm smoking crack and the SMG transmission sucks, just remember, the M3 and 645 have their SMG transmissions made by different companies. The 645's is made by the same company that makes the automatic transmission for BMW, the M3's SMG transmission is made by the same company that makes the transmission for the Williams BMW F1 car. Enough rambling, here's the pictures... Note the custom exhaust, brakes, and 2005 Competition Rims!
