Awesome video and awesome cars.

I test drove an m37s a couple weeks ago. I love the look, but it felt too big and heavy (maybe because I'm coming from a g35 coupe). Parkig was even a chore. I ended up going with a 2011 g37s 6MT. Terrific car, and very fun to drive. I also paid $14,000 less than the asking price of the m37s, so it was a win win for me.

well you're comparing two different vehicles. I miss driving stick but the M feels more solid as a luxury car. If you're looking for sporty the 6mt sedans are the bang for the buck.

Last whad the new exhaust installed since I had a battle with a bad road in NYC. Tarmac Motorsports built a full custom aluminum catback dual exhaust with x-pipe.

That's arguably the best looking / sounding M I've seen to date.

Very clean, very nice!

Props

so the biggest part is not having track tires and a lot of camber in the rear to cause no traction off the line. OBviously my car is not meant for the track with this setup but it was always a fun day.

Best time was 13.880@104mph on stretched 255/30/20 Hankook Ventus V12 tires


one vid so you can hear the custom dual exhaust installed by Tarmac
