Msportman:
Going back to my post I would have to say that BMW really turned things around with the E46 as the chassis and VANOS improvements were hugely effective. BMW got a bit of bashing with the E36 when comparing the E30.
You can't compare a coupe with a hatch but from a driving perspective rear wheel drive doesn't corrupt steering feel.
It's the same of argument that journalists have been going on for years FWD v RWD. The E46 has fabulous chassis balance but so has the MK5.
According to Top Gear the c-cks have now moved from BMW to Audi :signLOL:
One other hooligan which I'd like to try as the VXR Monaro...lots of sideways action.
One car I've yet to try is the V8 M5....400BHP and very cheap.
Oli:
The e46 is a truely great all round machine, and much more than just straight line pace. I went out in CA Automotives 550bhp model recently and that was just insane.
For me the one big let down is how old and dated they feel inside, but they can be picked up from under 10k, what a bargain !
Poverty:
me and cuprak1 have had a few experiences now with the e92 m3. Lets just say that afterwards the M3 owner wanted a passenger ride in mine after stating that I wouldnt stand a chance and him being out of my league :signLOL: :signLOL:
He eturned the favour afterwards. The E92 M3 feels much quicker than mine, but it isnt, which is weird, proper lovely motor though.
