Phil, ur crazy. Lol. Im no pimp. Just love cars a lot. Thanks pjinca.l!!

I left the 5 series for a bit. Not sure if I will come back anytime soon. Currently I have the f430 scuderia, e70 x5m, and a mini cooper s countryman. I was looking at the m6 gran coupe but way too much money. The x5m in the bmw lineup really excites me the most currently. King1828 has the f10 m5, so no reason to get one. My friend is also getting a 6 speed f10 m5, so no way I want one. May think about the new m4 when it comes out. Any ideas? I want another car that seats 4+ so I can put my baby in there when I want. I dont want a gtr.

Question: Power wise, how do you feel the Scud compares to an ESS VT-625/650 M3? Track no question, I know the Scuderia is long gone As for putting your kid in a rear seat, how about a 997.2 Turbo

Power wise, it feels very similar to the 625 VT2. It's strong acceleration since the car is super light. Power is always there and no need to downshift to pass in top gear. It almost feel like the clutch is slipping since the car RPMS move but you dont feel it going fast.

No 997 turbo. I rather get a 993 turbo
