Agree that they aren't pussy cars, but the HPF cars are for E46 only (I would want an E92). Also, even the fastest Stage 3 or higher HPF M3s aren't any faster than my S/C'd C6 Z06 was at only 722 rwhp....which wasn't really all that fast. They have very bad traction issues, and they seem to have a problem with exploding motors. No thanks.

They do. But actually their fastest car to date is a Stage 2.5 (I'm very familiar with the cars). The Stage 4 just blows its tires off since you can't fit anything big back there. Not a good platform for big power, IMO.

And yes, quite a few blown motors lately. But that's supposed to be a secret.

its apparently a well kept secret haha. i would imagine it would have to be considering how much the kits cost though. still though i would pick bmw over chevrolet any day of the week. thats just me though, in the end its all up to you.
