Mmmmm.... Sweet. I love that color. So much so in fact that I painted my hybrid that same dove gray metalic.
I have always been fond of the M3's There were dozens of them at VIR a few weeks ago including one brand new white 330Ci that still had dealer tags on it [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] He was actually one of the few cars that could really give me a run for the money and he just dominated me on the straights [img]redface.gif[/img] Thats a car I don't really mind being dominiated by though.

Performance wise, I am not impressed with BMW.
My integra smoked 3 m3's and 2 m5's at a auto cross last october, by a minimum of 4 seconds on a tuned BMW, and like 6 seconds for the rest. And I am still NA. Raced a m3 on the interstate sunday, and beat him on 3 occassions, until the "ricer" fly-by of course.
But I can hand it to ya, a BMW looks a hell lot better than a integra, and more "chick appeal", and we all wish we could afford one.</font></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></BLOCKQUOTE>
And I've beat modified 911's on track days. Does that mean that a 911's performance is sub par? Not even. Don't knock 'em til you've driven them. This is one of the tightest stock cars I've driven. Great road manners and the torque, oh my goodness [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

You must be racing the old 240 HP M3s eh? I can see an integra beating up on them, until about 100 MPH, then they should pass you easily. The 333 HP M3s, you'd lose to in a drag very quickly. I've got a friend who has an M Roadster that is bone stock and ran a 13.2 at 5800 feet above sea level, and those aren't even meant for drag racing.
Anyways, nice car! My gf wants one of those at some point in time in our married future. She better get a better job [img]wink.gif[/img]
P.S. Seattle looks BEAUTIFUL!
P.P.S. I understand this is TOTALLY off-topic, but it looks like those pics were taken with a digicam, no? If interested, check out my new website, www.binaryphotography.com for anyone who has or is looking to buy a digicam, digicamcorder, scanners, printers, about Adobe Photoshop, tips & Tricks, etc., and you can post your pictures there too... It's a forum I created with vbulletin. Hope to see some nice pics up there!
