Wanted to trade the S2k for one but I keep breaking stuff! The more stuff I break the more money I dump into the S. That means the less likely I am to get rid of it. Its a fun ride its paid off so I might as well stick to it.


Hah my friend Alex posted a picture of his E46 M3 actually on BFC and said I got one. He post under my name all the time.

The rev-limiter won't help machanical overrev. When you're at 9K in third and throw it into second and let out the clutch something is going to break.
