Q's:
1: What do you drive (daily & weekends)?
2: What might you be driving in the future?
3: What would you drive if $$$ was no object (pick 2 ;-)?
A's:
1: Mazda 2002 Protoge'5 & stake bed truck w/lift gate.
Weekends: BMW 2002 M Coup (315hp) & GMC Syclone
(335+hp/400+ ft lbs trq, 525hp plans pending, has ZR-1 9f/11r" rims + much more...).
Also have a Lotus Elan M100 which is waiting for it's new out of state owner to collect it.
Fun, but British.
2: BMW 2002 M Coup super charged (417hp w/Nordic super charger) and a few suspension improvements. BTW, the 2003 Mini Cooper S also looks very interesting.
*Last year for the M Coup. With only 800-850 built yearly this August will be the end of it.
Get one while you can! Unique, fast, rare, and GREAT to drive, plus phenomenal resale value (90% at the TWO year mark). BMW has never built a car this size with this much power before, and will probably not do it again. Yes, it is faster than the M5 excluding top speed (governors removed; 171 vs 182).
3: McLaren F-1 (BMW M engine, FYI) & 2004 BMW M6 (V10, 500hp).
----> M5 fans (lots here I see):
By 2004 the M5's 394hp V8 will be replaced with a 500hp V10 (according to BMW).
Z8 will get the same (according to my assumption).
