M3 photoshoot

1. I had a tune on the Z along with all sorts of airflow mods and suspension so when I hit the gas pedal on the Z, I got a very snappy throttle response along with that "oh-so-wonderful" noise! That made it feel fast. Was it faster than the M3 though? Nope.

2. Deception comes by way of (gas on floor in "M" mode)... "Hmmm... I can hear and feel the V8 but... HOLY DAMN! IS THAT HOW FAST I'M GOING?!". Understated but damn fast. I don't know if that's getting the point across but it kinda sums it up.

Is it the fastest car I've ridden in? No but it is a definite powerhouse and it's a blast to drive. It really is. I am excited about driving again and that's always good. By comparison, my Z was a blast to drive too though with the mods and tune.
