Why spend the money on boosting an M3 that'll run 12's or 11's when you can spend siginicantly less on a Civic that will do the same. :down:

Obviously. Maybe I'm just focused too closely on the economics, but ultimately if you're boosting the car you do it for speed.

You can have the same result for significantly less money.

Now buying a stock M3 over a stock Civic I can obviously see.
