op, do you still have the BS? I'd appreciate it if you could describe it. i know it will be hard to not compare it to the other cars, but if you could it would be great. I just got the m5, and while it is fun, the c63 will always have a place in my heart. Simply because of the motor response, and sound. I felt as if that motor was perfectly mated to the C class chasis. I have the itch to buy a BS, and supercharge it. totally off topic, sorry lol

I don't have one personally but found this non HD version- the sound is not good or clear but at least you can see the flames. Let me try to get another one.

I still have it- only because of pretty much what you said: the normally aspirated engine and the rare look it carries. Its a great car that is now about 4 years old and its not the fastest ride in my stable but Im keeping the miles down and then will dump it for a nice price.

I don't really think it compares anymore to my other rides as technology has jumped forward and turbo cars have advanced in response and sound. Its just a special car cause of what it brought to the Benz world which is normally luxury first and sport second. The sound of the car is amazing and I pulled the resonators out for even more sound- the car handles incredibly well with the coilover set up but its not like the Lambo or the GTS which run magnetorheological shocks and that keeps those cars even more flat. It also would take a lot of work to get big power out of it so for me, it remains stock and hardly driven until it goes away to a lucky buyer.

Mate, this is exactly how I feel about the Lambo LOL. I have zero stops when it comes to grabbing the TT-S and flying.
Do you drive the Porsche more or the AMG GTS more? I know the GTS was your day to day favorite before you got this.

Wow man I really love the gold. I was thinking about something very similar for my Carrera White C2S, and this is my first time seeing pictures. Looks even better than I expected! Ultimately, as this is my first Porsche, I decided to keep her stock and will put the mod money into a GT3 purchase (hopefully this spring) because I am officially hooked and will always try to have a 911 in the stable moving forward!

Its kind of a wash right now but yes, there has been more miles in the period of dual ownership on the P car.


And while this might disturb some, I needed an even more daily driver for some other reasons and got this. Of course its tuned and pushes 500 whp and has a tremendous rpm sweet spot range and maneuverability:

Change is good---

Its a car I can rape and brutalize so in a sense... its a queen.

Don't worry I just needed a small LA freeway cruiser with some spunk- Im not leaving the "cool car" world although I have to admit the King is rather fun to drive.

I heard a titanium straight-piped gt3 rs at the track once and it blew all other cars away, including domestic and euro.

Yeah, the M4 is definitely a very good car indeed for the money! It would have gotten a lot more love by car nuts if it sounded better. I get what u mean. There are times when u need a car u can trash without too much consideration, yet won't make u curse every time u have to drive it. Better yet, if it's reasonably fun to drive. For people who own exotics, the M4 fits that bill perfectly! I did comtemplate getting one when I had the Speciale for getting around tight parking spaces as a DD, but stopped short due to it being not that small. These cars are putting on girth at a very alarming rate...
