Neal Spend just a bit more for a B58. More reliable and easy to make big power too. I have just a downpipe and tune for 420hp to the wheels. My BIL is running E40 on his and is much quicker than mine. 90k miles, 50k been tuned and have not done one single repair 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a BMW guy at all but the 1/2/3 series all look pretty badass. Neal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaturallyAspirated Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 BTW, one can find a nice used 2021 Tesla S Plaid for about $72,000, it has 1020hp. Thats $70.60/hp, a damn good value for a 200mph car that scoots 0-60 in 2.1 seconds. Neal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deephaven Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 For running errands it would be ideal...if it weren't a complete piece of shit. I tried like hell to buy one, but drive one once and even the acceleration does nothing to make it an okay experience. Serious piece of crap. Perhaps they will get the next generation right...although history shows they will fuck that up too. Either way the fanboi's will love it.
