here's some more! The Collection! This is when I bought a z28 from GM Tuner Jeremy Formato... that car was FAST, I got his autograph! THIS IS A MOVIE OF THE Z28 TURN UP YOUR SPEAKERS IF YOU HAVE A SUB YOU'LL LOVE IT!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYGSZiq8cgI
I've always liked the bmw like yours, I've found them to be very appealing. How does the change in body style affect handling and performance? That is a drastic change from standard bmw styling. What types of motors are in those? HP TQ? Do you know the 0-60 times? Very nice...
Thanks, yeah they look quite different compared to other cars, I think the M coupe is either a car you love or hate! The performance is quite good actually, it has 321hp, same engine as the M3. I can hit 60mph around 5-5.5 sec so i guess its a bit faster than the normal car out there. How is your car's performance? It looks great man!
that is def the sweetest beemer produced in a while. When I first saw that on the street, my draw dropped and I instantly fell in love with it.. The mercedes was okay on performance-- I added some evosport light weight pulley's and some denso irid plugs... Decent performance gain, never dyno'd it but i'd say 10rwp...top speed =160mph (gov removed needle pegged) This wasn't a speed machine so to say, but 160 mph out of a 6 banger is impressive. It took FOREVER and a cows age to get there, but i had room so I did it. Not a race car at all. The z28 was a a hoss! That thing was crankin almost 500 hp out the crank and landing 350 of it at the wheels at 1800rpm haha... Top speed= 186mph (gov removed, needle burried at 150 lol used govt laser guns to trapspeed) Now this was basically a drag-strip car with a license plate street legal for florida. No cats, racing transmission 4l69e, lingenfelter cam lsa113-581, carbon fiber intake, KN, c6 rims with emt runflatts, programmer, leather and t-tops. '98 ls1 by the way. This thing was a freakin rocket and it was tuned and previously owned by an aaaamazing ls1 tuner check out fasterproms.net Jeremy was really nice, and sold me an aamazing car at a great price. You can even get the jump on me at any speed, that car will catch you and blow your mind away when it flies by making anything look like it's standing still. That car got to 186mph in less than 2mi by the way, and slowed back down with plenty of room.Burn outs with this car were a blast, you could turn off the ECS and floor it at a stand still, it would cock sideways because of torque and hold the burn all through first, and second up to 65 mph and then dig in and go. $4.00 per gallon is why I sold it (I cried and still do, that was my first z28 and I wanted one for as long as I could remember... what a car) The wrx is a very impressive handling vehicle and accelerating as well. On road, it's amazingly fast, and offroad you can't really tell a difference. It takes off just as quick on dirt as it does on the road (actually rides better and smoother on dirt).. I've had it up to about 110mph going down lime, 70 mph in swamp grass lol, its quite a trip. 100+ mph off road is insane, do it with proper protection. I was 5 pointed up with a helmet on a closed road ;-) It's funny, in the wrx you don't feel like your going 100 when you are. The way they have the viewpoint setup it's kind of like a truck and sits up a lil higher than normal so you get a escewed view as to what a car should be getting. On the road, I've hit 125 with it, no problems. Smoked plenty of others in it, not many can keep up with the wrx because of it's traction.IMO it would beat the z28 out of th hole to 60mph, but after that the Z would dominate hands down.
Great...did you steal it from local museum? And how come you drove all the way through without wheels!!
