Ugly phoenix yellow m3 hauls ass

Man,
Got in behind this guy driving a fugly Phoenix yellow '03 M3 in Houston this past weekend. This car hauls ass. I mean my Cl is quick for and auto with CAI and obx headers but those M3's have unbelievable acceleration. It's hard to drive the Cl hard in traffic while racing on the interstate and not overrev it in sportshift. I found myself overreving while trying to watch the road and the tach. This guy comes around me on the frontage rd. and gets on the 59 south on ramp right past Bellaire. When I finally caught up to this guy who was driving like a man possesed I was doing about 120mph going south on 59 towards sugarland. I believe the traffic slowed him enough for me to catch up with him. When he saw me in his rear view he downshifted and started to pull a little. I got in behind him and he hit the corporate exit to get to the shopping center I guess. Now I bear down on the brakes and we all know the story with these weak ass braking systems. The brakes over heat and the pedal starts pulsing almost as much as my heart is. What a rush that was. Dangerously stimulating. I gotta get more ponies. Underdrive pulleys and some Nitrous maybe in the future. Anything to get to 300 + ponies.

I agree the braking system sucks and the m3 is one of my favorite rides. You should come to the houston meet on sat.

This is a E46 M3 going from 0-155 shifting w/ SMGII at 8000RPM in each gear. Enjoy.
