The car sould be called BMW BA for Badass...lol 150 mph with ease...not too shabby! Performs like it's on rails. The interior is leather heated seats....factory alpine cd player, harman kardon speaker, 2 kicker subs, 1800 watt MA amp..19" rims, lowered, $2500 dinan exhaust..... buy one today!  The inline 6 in this car one the world award for overall quality for 6 years in a row...

Pros — Everything..... car is amazing
Cons — ummmmmm, oil is $18 a quart

Best all around car in my opinion (performance, safety, practicality).  Performs amazing, naturally aspirated high revs make it a screamer, but simple clean lines in jet black keep it a sleeper.  Rear seats down suffices for most trips to Lowe's.  Can fit 4 when needed, and can take the baby and the bulldog on joyrides.  Still one of the best engines and all around capable cars on the road.  I'll drive till it won't go anymore (doesn't appear to be any time soon).

Pros — Thrill-ride Performance with enough practicality
Cons — Stiff ride, various creaks and rattles, starter motor failure caused some headaches.

A CSL body kit is only the start for this 2002 E46 ///M3 Coupe. With a full carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber trunk, interior trim and lightweight BBS CH 19" wheels, weight is significantly reduced throughout the car in a very balanced fasion. Superior handling is also heightened thanks to it's K&W-5 coil-over suspension, UUC short arm sway bars, and wider, fatter tires on every corner. Naturally aspirated acceleration is pushed into the exteme category with help from Conforti software programing, free-flow catylitic converters, and a super-high flow Eisenmann exhaust system. To allow for slowing and stopping of this beast, Eurospec "CSL" rotors with high-friction, high-temp ceramic pads have been added behind each wheel. A four-thousand dollar Alpine sound system including dual 10" Type-R subwoofers, matching component speakers/tweeters, dual amplifiers and a modest-yet-advanced head unit allow every occupant to enjoy whatever pleases their ears, next to the distinctive sound of it's roaring 365-horsepower, 8,000 RPM redline 3.2L inline-6 cylinder S54 powerplant. Umitza's "World's Brightest" Predator Chromium CCFL Angel Eyes provide a signature "BMW" appeal, to identify the Bavarian Motor Werks sensation from even a mile away. Several other minor cosmetic and functional features incorporated throughout demonstrate the fantasy and fury of piloting this 185-mph rocket. Truth be told when asked; "Yea, it's fast."

Pros — Acceleration, Handling, Responsiveness, Cornering Capability, Stoping Power, Top Speed, Control, Pleasure. A fifty-thousand dollar supercar.
Cons — Averaging 16.2 mpg when shifting at 2,500 RPM. Maintenance.

Only the noice of the roof was disturbing - great sound - great engine!  A Shame that the new version has no trunk!

Rock solid.  One of the best-ever engines.  The most innovative transmission (SMG).  But
something is lost in translation...

Pros — Great looks for a BMW, probably the best ever!
Cons — It's still a BMW.  And when it comes to sports cars, a BMW doesn't invoke visual LUST...
