Ghostrider M Coupe chase vid and M5 vs Williams F1 vid
This is the reason I bought an M Coupe. I love these things!

And just so you guys know... "GhostRider" has kept his identity and the identity of the M Coupe driver a secret. He is riding a GSX-R1000K5 and made it into a replica cop bike... how genious is that. It's a turbocarged gixxer producing 285 bhp! Most of you have seen ghostrider vids before and this is another fine example. Enjoy suckas. And yes, the coupe driver knows that it's his friend videotaping him.
And this is my favorite 5th Gear episode... it made me shed a tear. The GREATEST!

M Coupes share the same chassis as the Z3 only they are wider, use one of the two M3 motors, run wider wheels, better brakes and suspension, and are structurally reinforced. It's like a comparison between a STI and WRX... STI's have better brakes, better suspension, better motor, etc. The US spec M Coupes use either the older S52 M3 motor (240 hp) or the current S54 M3 motor (333 hp). Euro spec M Coupes come with the S50 motor rated at 321 hp. When the M Coupe came out it was the fastest BMW sold at the time. A guy I know ran a 10.7 sec quarter in his turbo M Coupe down in Sydney. Some turbocharged versions of the M Coupe run 726 bhp.... but anyway. I could talk all day about the M Coupe, I love it. I won't rant on.
Have any of you guys watched the second video that I posted? It's the 5th Gear episode and it's my favorite one.
Search for some other Ghostrider videos, he is one crazy nutter!

There is a another sweet ghostrider vid where he is driving an Impreza. That one was pretty cool too even though ghostrider was just cruising and letting the m coupe lead. If he wanted to he could have smoked the bimmer on any of the straight-aways.
