give me your 2 cents...

imho that’s the way to go over a vette but primarily because of your budget…

C6 Z06’s are bonkers but not as a primary DD.

I drove that daily for a year in Pittsburgh, also driving back and forth. That low, that stanced, still an awesome car. Buy one and I’ll hook you up with some Broadway statics and call it a day :tup:

yeah it sucks if I ever actually did get an ls7 I would never rest easy until I replaced the heads on it

ugh fineeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

E39 M5

400 hp, 6 spd, 4 doors, 27 mpg highway, great sound, great interior, all under 20k

Use the extra cash saved as a fix it fund. If it proves reliable, no worries.

the $3-4k it would cost to fix the vanos if they crap out on top of the poor mileage and other typical BMW repairs is kind of what deters me from an m5…but they look so good and sound even better

I would prob get one of those vs a 335/135i I think…

I drove Scott’s old one when jonny b had it. It was a pretty nice car. It felt pretty damn outdated though. Id have to get a 03 if I got a e39 m5 with the e46 m3 interior. That would be fucking perfect. That v8 sound is just ughhhhhh

Only downside to the Z06 is no targa top which would be really nice in CA

i totally agree. ive always wanted something in a targa but its not the only downside.

I think the fact that I would have to pull the heads and either replace them or recondition them is a pretty big deterrent

Agreed I was looking at selling the C6 for a Z06 before the next round of mods but doing that and having to do heads/cam right away + $$$$ rear tires, and no targa changed my mind.

I’ve dd’ed a few cars mentioned in this thread, the e36m3 being one of them. I liked mine, what was your beef?

It just felt it’s age. Old, sluggish and I hated the interior. Just isn’t a car for me that’s all.

You can jump an E36 pretty well though:

I had to replace E36 control arms yearly without jumping LOL

Just because I like rare and oddball cars. This would be a sweet weekend cruiser, has great power and a targa top too.

Good god, please no.

lol not a god damn chance

Targa Tops are not as fun as you think.

Because?

Does that car come with a white leather jacket?

Because they don’t call you back.
