    Anyone ever drive a 3/4-1 ton Chevrolet/GMC compared to a Ford/Dodge. The difference is huge. The IFS of the GM trucks handles a lot better and the ride is a lot smoother. After driving a 2003 2500hd Duramax and a 2014 3500 Dually Duramax. When I compared the ride quality to that of a Dodge Cummins 2500 and a Ford F250 7.3. The difference was pretty big. (I love messing with you guys) My brothers Yamaha FJ1200 doesn't even compare when it comes to handling to my Ninja 300. I have driven an E34 sedan and wagon, and an E39. Now the ride on all of them was smoother than my E21 and all of those cars are obviously faster. But when it comes to corners. It's a no contest.

I even prefer manual seats and windows. Less shit breaks then. I was just saying. Most car parts that break. Are because of lack of maintenance. I know probably 5 people who have well over 100,000 miles and have never changed their tranni fluid because they think that it is "bad" to change it.

    east freistadt road at the intersection a little past Walgreens. It might be a house, but there's construction equipment  off to the side and if I recall the building isn't finished or is getting remodeled from what it previously was.

    It's crazy how high the torque is coming up on gas engines. Torque used to always be 1/2 the horsepower or so.

    Neat interview with a U.S. enthusiast who owns a euro spec e36 m3: http://chrisparente.com/2014/09/02/bmw-enthusiast-interview-paul-valliere-part-one/  He goes on to talk about his e30 m3 and e34 m5.  Ya, he's a bastard.

    Im sure with the electric motor and spiced up turbo 4 it would be somewhere in the 400hp range. But i agree. I hope for more

    They were completely different.  I'd be more inclined to drive the 911 everyday.  Classic air cooled rear engine power is awesome.  But I'd have no problem driving the mini.  Very cool/fun little car.
