Great Car Videos!

**dsb** · 04-08-2007

I'm always looking for cool car videos online. I don't care whether or not it's an SLK video. I just like to see cars moving fast. That said, I wanted to start a thread where we can post your favorite car videos. Race, rally, street, track, whatever... Let's just get them in one spot for all to admire.
Here's a start:

997 GT3, nice driving skills:

Totally illegal, totally wreckless, but entertaining (since no one was hurt)

Here's one of my favorites. I'm sure some of you have seen this one before. It's a test drive of the BMW 335i coupe. This car is VERY toss-able around the corners. I like the SLKs' exhaust note much more than the 335i though. Enjoy..

The GT3 is a sweet looking car, would love to be able to drift thru every corner like he did on twisty roads, would be extremely fun.

I heard the new 335i can get an additional 40-50hp with just a reflashed, and can be easily modded for alot of hp. So it's a bargain compared to the new M3 which is rumored to be around $70K out the door with options.

Yes thanks to the Turbo the 335i Sports, you can get 50-75 hp with Just an Ecu upgrade, Air Intake System and a Full Exhaust.

But At the End you want the M3 probably for its 8,500 rev limiter, 400hp out of the box and a V8.

Ive driven a couple of Mseries Bimmers and what I liked about them is the top end, Seriously an M6 can outblow many Ferrari's and Lamborghini's Specifically Gallardo at topspeed if the top speed governor is removed.

I dislike the rev engine I feel you need to push it hard so it could go maybe I am used to a 5.4 V8 that has as much or slightly less torque.

I also wonder if the 335i chassis was built to handle all this extra hp and torque from aftermarket upgrades. Remember the chassis/torque issues they had with the first couple of production years of the E46?

Here's an interesting video about the Nurburgring. (Filmed by BMWNA, long)

dsb, that's one of my favorites as well. I have it loaded on my Xbox hard drive for all to see when they visit the house. As I recall, he set a track record that day. Which is amazing when you see the number of times he was impeded by slower moving traffic. Greaqt Video.
