No way. 641 domestic horsepower equates to about 350 German HP.

I went to the driving range and saw three ZR1s parked together. I parked right next to them, even backed in so I could be cool. Then I asked myself "why the f*ck would you back into a parking spot at a golf course?" It makes getting your clubs out of your trunk a bitch if someone parks behind you.

how do you guys figure that a ZR1 is slower than a 335i?

and on what basis does 604 hp < 350 german hp (which would be with a tune on)?

doesnt the Zr1 have a 0-60 of 3.3 seconds ?

Ran over a pot hole and messed up my passenger side's alignment. The tie rod was probably bent or something, sent the car to Bimmer Workshop up in Humble this morning.

Black Friday is not a myth.....


p.s. The shop confirmed it was the lower control arm that was bent....

Spongebob is pretty dirty. It's just the little kids don't realize it.
