I know this thread is dead, but I just started laughing about this family car at the track. Only mods are tires and coilovers. Skip to about 3 minutes. Its worth a watch.

I'm not comparing it to anything, just talking about how the "family car roots" seem to get around a track pretty fucking fast.

So true. I'd wager a guess an actual race car driver would be faster around a track in a 328i than an average Joe in an M3/4

Yep, the wonders of computers managed to speed up the video of the M4 while it slowed down the video of all the other cars on the track in the same video.

Its a combination of a very good driver and distortion caused by the gopro's lens.

This is a more realistic frame rate for a video shot at Road America:

Did any of you see this video when this guy posted it?


I found it pretty funny that he bought an M4 right after returning the Porsche


His point of view is the same as jasonturbo basically.

He must be stupid though in marcos eyes to return a 911 for a "family car" lol

Sorry fanboi, you lose. The difference would be that extreme even in a Mazda. In the original video, an E36 looks like it's flying too around the 6:00mark.


Start at 8:45

Nowhere does Nick state that he traded down from the 911 to the family car because he didn't find the 911's performance accessible. In fact, he touts the virtues of the 911.

He had a long running dispute with Porsche over a series of unfortunate circumstances that rendered his 991 unfixable. After Porsche bought back his car, he decided to purchase an M4.

A professional driver in a BRZ Aozora would destroy an average Joe in a Porsche around a track, cause avgerage Joe drivers are scared and unable to push their cars to the full limit. Or they'll just spin out from lack of skill.

Since we are conversing about drivers skill and whatnot here is a hilariously off-topic video of an all motor EF civic doing work on an R35 GTR. Absolute proof that driver skill is the most important aspect of high performance driving. Really shitty quality but an awesome video nonetheless.

Your opinion is worthless. I can google search the info your provide. Let's state some facts here;

1) F80 M3 - you have never driven it but you seem to know about how the M3 rates Vs 911s. Marco thinks personally driving a vehicle and comparing it Vs another is less relevant than relying on some automobile journalist POV

2) Pushing limit on Street - anyone who thinks they can drive "outside the confines of the law" on the street and learn the potential of a sports car is completly laughable and very ill informed

3) Marco 911 has no balls and will never show up to RS event

I care about RS members that have had some personal experiences with the cars we are talking about (Jason turbo opinion on the GT3), not some childish bench racer pulling facts from the internet and stating he knows better....

Let's see what Marco quotes next....lol!!!!

2) As the former owner of a 700 hp Supra turbo, a 400 horsepower supercharged S2000, a 400 horsepower GMC Typhoon, I completely agree. It is hard to push the limits of sub 200 horsepower cars on the street safely

3) Marco has never gone to a meet???
