My Yaris got a new roommate! - Toyota Yaris Forums

rage2 · 07-05-2007, 10:05 AM

hehe picked up a 2003.5 BMW M3 Cab SMG this weekend, drove her back from Chicago to Calgary, 2000 miles of pretty much no speed limit, 150mph blasts through South Dakota and Montana!

Wheels and suspension should be here today or tomorrow... can't wait!

haha thanks. I did cruse at 150mph with the top down for a good 20 minutes, I have the windscreen and really, above 120mph the wind noise does get annoying. I did the last stretch of montana with the top up at 150mph.

That's not terribly crazy... my old delimited and renntech'd SLK32, I used to cruse at 170mph top down haha.

If I ever made that move the next step would be be throwing my drivers license away.

staticorex · 07-05-2007, 11:13 AM

That building makes the car look even better. :)

Wow, you must feel neutered driving a Yaris!

Well the Yaris I bought for my brother... but really, it's totally different driving experiences. The M3 while fast, lets you make mistakes without costing speed... get away a bit more with agressive driving. The Yaris (with all the suspension mods) forces you to drive smooth to maintain speed in and out of corners. I actually enjoy driving both cars and they both get even road time with me.

My E55 however has been really neglected... it's been parked ever since I bought the Yaris. I'm gonna sell it this week.

excellent photos (as well as car)!

YarisGuy · 07-05-2007, 04:59 PM

Loving the pics man! And 150mph with the top down =

sherryberry · 07-05-2007, 05:11 PM

Nice car! wow... just wow to your 150mph. I think the fastest i've gone ever is 95mph and i don't dare go any faster... cops here are a pest. and the fastest you can go anywhere around is 55.

rage2 · 07-05-2007, 06:34 PM

hehe my fastest was 302km/h (189mph) in my old 944 turbo.

RodimusPrime · 07-05-2007, 10:27 PM

Beautiful piece of machinery.

Ci2Eye · 07-05-2007, 11:01 PM

Nice car, Rage.

The M3's an awesome car. Is, is that Carbon Black?

And, who ya gonna support in F1 now? The whirling propeller boys or Jarno and Ralf?

rage2 · 07-05-2007, 11:11 PM

Yep, that's Carbon Black. Thanks for all the comments guys!

As for who I'm supporting in F1, if you read my blog you'll know that I've been a hardcore McLaren fan since forever. Some of my readers think I jinxed the McLaren team this weekend by buying this car, thus losing out to Ferrari at Magny Cours.
