M235 is nice... If I had no other recourse but to get stuck in a BMW.... I'd get the m235/m2.
I'd have to rid myself of the m235 shytty e diff for a Dinan mechanical one... Add an exhaust that sounds like the car moves... Drop it 1.5 inches and MOD the turbos to make some kind of swoosh sound of some type. And probably tune it to 400HP.

Then drop an Alfa Romeo body on the bimmer chassis n call it a day... LmPRao!

JK on the Alfa body.

I think we are definitely on the same page. I've upgraded a lot of cosmetic stuff, exhaust, downpipe, intake, springs are sitting in my kitchen and new wheels are coming in. all combined should be around 380-400HP.

Yep. At the end of the day, most of us will still remain a normal guy who like cars and most of us probably won't become a professional race car driver in our life. Even if you become a professional race car driver, it is very unlikely I took your Z's first place in my bimmer I'm surprised your Z is great because mine had spent a lot of time at dealer. Rattling everywhere was the least, the leather peeled off on my shift knob was the worst and although it was covered under warranty, the tech managed to torn my leather booth under the shift knob. Although they ordered a new one for me, they actually ordered a wrong one (base model instead of nismo). Worst of worst is that the new knob doesn't lock in place anymore, I can twist it with my hand. Not to mention the paint bubble occurred less than a year of ownership on my OEM bumper (bought new). All these small things just drove me away from my once beloved Z and I'll probably never get a nissan again...

I love my Z and appreciate all cars. I don't compare every single thing to the Z like some of the fucktards around here do.

I focus on the good and enjoy the drive, no matter what it is.

When I think of my Z. I think satisfying, enjoyable, unique driving experience, beautiful bold lines... BUT... I definitely can appreciate a different philosophy set on different car brands and types.
I feel cars should improve over time, not worsen. So I'm critical when my favorite cars are dumbed down. Suggestive advertising, wordplay and packaging won't sway me into a status quo mindset.

Example... Just cuz the whole world jumps on 911 dyck, doesn't mean there are cars out there more fun to drive and more enjoyable.

My Ninja juicer is a FAR superior platform compared to the Z for making smoothies. Nissan better get it together.
