Hmmm, I don't think BMW would agree with you there :confused:

Love the second image by the way.

That may be your opinion on the looks of them, but that's certainly not true about the performance. The V8 in the new M3s has nearly 90 more HP than the E46 models, yet weighs less than the old inline-6 engine. That's truly impressive engineering.

BTW, great pics. I really need to pick up a flash.

I think you did a nice job with the lighting.

Yes that's great n all but I don't like how everyone is switching over to v8's and it just doesn't have the same feel...although I'm used to E36's. Vert M's...:rolleyes:

Not everyone. Audi will have a TT V6 in the next S4 again, and rumor has it that BMW will be going to Turbo 6's for the M's as well. Nissan didn't go to a V8 in the GTR, but then again, Acura will be moving from a V6 to a rumored V10 in the next NSX.
