What!?! 300HP out of a 3.0 liter six? And turbo'd. What am I missing here?

Okay Mr.Nattypants. Your Bummer..Bimmer..Beemer cant even kick out the numbers to even compare it to a G8. Under powered and gets worse gas mileage. What am I missing here? Other than the G8 has an extra set of doors. Just wait for the Camaro. There's probably a video on YouTube showing the G8 turning a quicker laptime at Nurbering(sp) too. Heck there's probably a video out there of a Cobalt SS kicking out a faster lap than the 1 Series.

Okay lets compare mangos to mangos. I see BMW has to stuff a V-8 between the strut towers of the 09 M3 just to keep up with the General.

BMWs are over rated IMO. Hmmm? I'll have to dig up some printed material on where I beat a M3 CSM factory Lightweight driven by a National Champion on the track with my GN. That's not really a fair comparison. Because it's the driver and not the car. Or is it?

I wanted to get pierced. So I bought Prince Albert in a can. Looks like this is going to take some time.
