Give me a nice mid-late 90's e36 328 for 10k, another 6-10k for a nice turbo kit and i'd eat the current M3 and M5's for lunch.

Ever since I saw this Home i've always wished I could have gotten my 7 in a 728iL Straight six strength and reliability, easier to mod, no radiator issues....I could go on and on.

The Caddy has been de-throned by the Porsche Panamera, already.

Wow! I didn't know that. I am impressed. It looks way too big to be that fast.

I found the comments on Porsche saying Nissan's claimed ring time for the GTR wasn't possible interesting. I heard Porsche purchased a GTR and had some of their pro racers drive it on the ring. Apparently, none of them got close to the time Nissan said it was capable of. The GTR is a fast car, but there is some smoke and mirror tricks going on over at Nissan with regard to this car, IMO.

BMW is after EfficientDynamics these days so if they can do their magic with power, torq etc. they may go with V8 otherwise V10 TT with KERS. Some rumors are that their will be both engines on new 5; the beefed-up V8 TT for 550/5 with M-sport pack and the V10 TT for M5. We shall see.
