Pros

Engine, weird looks that are just plain cool

Cons

Transmission feel, build quality

2001 Bmw M Coupe — Amazing engine performance: the sound and pulling power aftet 3000RPMs is amazing. Individual throttle bodies really make the car sing. Build quality is terrible, and this goes to the engine, chassis and interior trim pieces. Transmission feels horrible: rubbery, long, too notchy Brakes are outstanding Floaty suspension, very soft. Car pitches and dives too much on braking and you're piloting a plane on take off with the way the nose of the car lifts during hard acceleration.

Zetti 4 Ever — I absolutely love my sweet little road-star, but things never can be fast enough... or you get used to it. performance is not too bad, it's a 3 litre, it's not the M though. appearance is very nice and i love the 18" borbet rims. fun factor is enormous, never get that smile out of my face...

The Nervous One!!! — The outside view of the car is nice... it's a Sport, and have good looking performance lines, BUT that rear...just to nervous, it's always ALWAYS trying to running out of the road...
