and the word @ M3Post is that the sedan outhandles the coupe anyway due to more favorable weight dist. (it's 3" shorter, w/ less trunk overhanging the rear axle).
Congrats on the car.

M3post is quite entertaining. Especially with fellas like that "FlyFish" guy.

Love the car, Chris. Best of both worlds with four seats, tons of power, strong handling, good looks, and plenty safe as well.

Only thing I don't much like would be the wheels. Lots of spokes in a darker color don't work so well, in my opinion. I thought they were just covered in brake dust but it's awfully uniform for brake dust.

Why would I go to VIR? You challenged me, and I didn't even compare the M3 to the FD - I just got it to be a fun kid hauler, not to be a street racer. If you really have something to prove, come on down, otherwise you're just a keyboard racer. I've lapped more impressive cars than your FD: driver > car.
