BTW I had a trabbi that was really dependable too. Got that one for $300 drove it for over 20k miles and sold it for $4500.
All I did was put oil in the gas. Made a lot of new friend with that car.

Well, for me, resale is irrelevant. This M3 is going to be my daily driver commuter vehicle so the 911 can continue it's evolution to track-only status. Maybe now I'll get 2nd dates, not having to strap the poor girls into the 5 point harnesses. When the time comes that the M3 no longer suffices as a daily driver, I'll turn it into a track car as well; if I don't, I'm sure I'll be able to find somoene else who wants an OBD-I M3 to track.

If you don't want to drag race, that's fine. Bring that 8,000 lb paper weight to Willow.

BTW - Only a fool would race on the street...oh...wait...

Jason the Toll road is wide open rarely other than rush hour is there anyone on it.
I would leave you so far behind on the first hill I will only need to about 75mph the rest of the way.

How about El Mirage then?

Thats not a public road.
Come on I need a bug to drive.

A race on the street is not happening...7 tickets for me this year will not allow it, plus a wife with a temper. Bring your pig to Willow, or go back to selling grommets for $1000.00

I think I will go for a bike ride over to the Ranch market.
And get a sandwich.
While you two are sitting inside.
I am going to have some fun this afternoon.
Anyone want to go on a Bike ride this afternoon meet me at the Nature center at Irvine and University .
We can ride the back bay road down to Shellmaker Isand.
I will be there in about 20 minutes.
