:cornut: Steve thank you very much. As a 60yo this is my absolute favorite thread that you do. I love to flash back to that different place and time. I can't dream about being one of today's drivers but I could/can dream about being one of those 50s/60s/70s drivers. Jason

There are no substitutes for an E30 M3, and for Gabor Mester, no ordinary M3 would cut it. Gabor had his heart set on the specific M3 that started him down the path of BMW: a car that belonged to the parents of a childhood friend. Walking through his friend's garage one day and spotting this M3 instantly turned teenage Gabor into a car guy, who from that day forward took every possible opportunity to see and even wash the car. The dream of owning those '80s flares, boxy lines, and a screaming S14 came true after many years (and a bit of convincing) when the car was ready to be handed to the next generation of E30 appreciators. Now Gabor's E30 M3 love affair has been raging for seven years with no signs of stopping [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jja-Y5023tk]There Are No Substitutes for a BMW E30 M3 - YouTube[/ame]

Second that. Good luck though, I think they pulled the plug on the C-X75. You'll have to steal the prototype!
Looks like you might be able to buy a piece of the C-X75 one day...sort of. Gotta say, I like the sound of 300hp/liter. :yesnod: COSWORTH F1 ENGINE FOR THE ROAD (pistonheads.com) Full article here.
:cornut: One could say that this engine in milder form is here already, R56 N14 and N18, yes? This statement will get at least DaveO to chime in. Jason
