Not often you see a modded car like this for sale at a dealership much less on the showroom floor. They must be desperate for decent cars to show off.

Can't wait to go and drive the new '08 M3. May end up getting one if they're everything they look like they're gonna be (sure miss my ole' '95 M3). The BMW dealership down the road from me is great. I've test driven (and purchased) cars from them in the past. Their new building is pretty crazy. Over 400 cars INSIDE (it's basically a huge parking garage with BMWs everywhere).

That car will sit pretty until some lil rich kid with rich parents buys it for him, then smashes the fuck out of it the following day.

I don't get it. The car is obviously built for show more then go (even with the turbo and NOS). But under the hood is still nasty. The NOS is run all nice and pretty but the turbo setup and the rest looks like crap. "Checkout my cool TV and stereo setup. Checkout my sweet NOS setup with nice pretty run lines. Now look at the crappy turbo setup that looks like ass."

In the turbo setup, if you notice, there isn't a lot of room to look nice.
If I had that turbo setup in my car I'd pop the hood every day just so I can
at it and say it's mine. Screw looking nice. That turbo setup looks freekin awesome!

I very much agree with GreenMachine! Putting a turbo in our cars is a tedious job......like trying to put a fat chick in a tight space......it can be done, but its gonna take some work! LOL

i like how the ad says its tested but the HP is estimated. if its been tested why would you need to estimate it? dyno shows 379 but ad says 550+? is he really running a 175shot of nitrous with 12psi boost.. all in all though, nice car, could do without the tan interior (no offense)

So your saying in the current state that the engine and kit ca capible of running 12psi with no issues at all 100% of the time? Or are you saying that the kit can do 12psi? I'm not making stupid comments. Look at it from the perspective of the eBay buyer. They see what's posted and think they car is currently running 12psi and pushing 550HP with NOS. It's the seller that's in question, not you or your kit.

You'd be surprised at how well this motor can handle that level of boost. I have on several occasions turned the boost up to 12psi, but it does seem to stretch it at the high rpm's.. I'm always running 10psi with no problems to date other than changing the clutch, stock for those who will ask. There's not a day that I drive it that I don't run it through the gears and it's still holding on.

that's just an opinion, but look closer, it is not a bad looking setup. here's the identical setup,

allmotor: i didnt mean that it couldnt run it, heck any turbo kit can run 12psi with a boost controller, but i dont think its fair for the dealer to advertise that it has 550hp, if it cant run it reliably all day long. i used to work at a dealer, and i hated it when the other salespeople tried to sell a car they knew nothing about, and make stuff up as they go.

[ I'm still surprised to see this thing selling at a dealership. Most of the time around here you see this kinda thing only at shady dealerships. Anyone know of this dealership's reputation?[/QUOTE]
