So here is what happened,

There I was leaving our shop to meet with our engine builder with our shop Evo loaded up to the gunals with blocks, pistons and what not. I get to a stop light and minding my own business when this guy in a E46 M3 pulls up next to me rolls down the window and says.....




















Nice Altezza's!!!!

I still do not know what to say.


Mike <--- dead blow in hand going to fix the shop Evo Altezza's right now.

And I'm with mike. I'd rather have an EVO VIII over an M3 any day. My ***** is long enough that I don't need a status symbol, I'd rather have something that actually responds to modding inexpensively. $10000(plus labor) for a dinan S2 package nets you about 30hp and 20lb-ft, $10000 in an evo is an M3 destroying monster. If you're buying an M3 for a performance machine you're sadly duped. For the price difference between the two put into the EVO would make the it able to beat the M3 around the track using only 1 gear, reverse.
