...one thing; you guys need to stop calling your S a 'no frills' sports car. Last time I checked S2000s come with AC and all sorts of other amenities.
How about a "low-frills" sports car.

Where are you guys seeing a lot of E46 dynos? Thought they need to disable something on the ECU or they don't rev past 6500 rpm and that either requires the expensive tool or pulling fuses or some tricks holding buttons down and shutting off the car at 6K rpm or what not. Not too many shops have the tool. And I've driven my friend's M3. It is fast.

Car won't rev past 6K on the dyno otherwise.

U r correct. You need a GT1 tool to dyno properly. On the earlier model years (01-03), u can do it w/out a GT1, but it involves playing with the DSC button.

But whenever I see a Evo or STi I'm like, ok its fast but they look like young kid's cars.
Would I want an Evo or STi, yeah sure, but compared to the M3 they look childish, and not as classy.
Just as how an M3 looks stupid(conservative) compared to an NSX or Elise.
I'll still say that the M3 is the most well rounded of the sport coupe things, for everyday driving.

. Oh well, what can you do? The M3 owner told me, someday I will own a NSX but I just cant afford it. I told him yeah you can, sell your M3 and go NSX shopping..
