Nah I've just never seen the M3 attraction. I like the way they look but I don't find them impressive whatsoever. They come with bigger brakes and wider tires so they feel better than a regular 3series. Big deal. I'll take a G8 or CTSV over a M3 any day.

The RT's kinda suck. It's a Hemi but they really don't have much power at all. The SRT8 at least kinda feels like it has power. I would hold out for a used SRT8 Grand Cherokee first.

The R/T totally sucks lol.

Eh, you mean it's a Hemi®

They no longer have HEMIspherical heads, so they're not real hemis. Just underpowered dodge V8s . I agree though, gotta at least have a SRT8 6.1. My buddy had a 6.1 charger and it was very nice, though my 5.0 would dust it in the 1/4 mile. The 6.4 is a beast though.

Asking way too much for a Z/28 with a SBC 350. I have it's sister car, a 1979 Pontiac Trans Am with a 455, it's perfectly restored and I can't get anywhere near 30K lol.

I hate to be antagonistic, but the next high dollar toy I buy will have a AMG badge on it. That is probably the best sounding engine I've ever heard.

I love the CTS-V cars. I see a wagon come by my house all the time and it is filthy, looks like it hasn't been washed in 6 months. That is what I'd like to have, a wagon with near 600hp, a 6 speed, and massive brakes. I love that car.

I've been looking at an SRT-8 Jeep, even used ones, to replace one of my Exploders. I do love them, especially the new ones with the 8 speed auto. I just can't turn loose of 70-80 thousand dollars that they cost. Especially for something that I would drive in the woods.
