What a day, since none of us headed out to the 2 big meets in the area we decided to all meet up and have our own session. Drove an SMG e92 M3, the 1M again, a 335i sedan and a Lotus Elise supercharged.

I know I say this a lot, but I really really REALLY dislike the e92 M3. It is by far the largest of the list of cars and feels like it. The SMG is flawless but there is no driver input, if you take away the convenience argument and laziness factor all you have is that its faster. I know the SMG is faster even in the Z but its so boring and the inability to go from 6th to 3rd at the drop of a hat really blows. Cars should be limited by my abilities not the other way around. With that said the 1M is wonderful, it looks great and sounds pretty good too. I can't justify the price tag but for the exclusivity I guess its worth it. If it didn't cost so much I'd be in one but for a car that is literally double what I paid for my Z I will stay with my Z. Very torquey though. The 335i sedan is an A to B, BMW and not a car I would bother modding.

This brings me to the Lotus. Hands down the funnest car of the bunch. It is not realistic it is not comfortable, it is noisier than our Z but it is an absolute BLAST to drive. There is no excess with that car and I would only get one if I had $ laying around but when it comes to automotive toys, that's a great one to have. Pics will be up when my boy gets around to it. I have a few on my blackberry lemme see what I can do.
