Proof that Cramer has the sickest M3 evar

[whowhatwhere]

Cramers car is VERY nice, but I dont understand the hype. the BBs wheels are VERY nice, but 1 piece- and not very period correct. the rest of his car is all stock LOOKING

once again, I am not knocking his car at all- I also think its beautiful, but the sickest?
I agree Markus is my winner

I think your m3 is the nicest that i have ever seen in person.

You mean because it was mostly built on credit cards?

I didn't say it, but that's what I've been told.

Too bad Swale didn't technically own his car, although it was fucking amazing.

Awww Chris - you aren't sorry to bump it - Heck, I wouldn't be.

You built a sick car, not doubt about it. Humble is good, but sick M3 is better.

Good to see you have the humility though.

[Jand3rson]

Cramer's car is amazing. I don't know if its my all time favorite. Mike's is awesome too (Swale AND Edler!)

Sorry to bump an old post, I just found this while doing a search for something... must have missed this the first time around and was too funny not to reply to!

Josh- I think it's funny that pic still comes up, specially under a search for 2008 M3.. hopefully by now they have more pictures on the web ;) That pic was taken about 4 years ago when I got the wheels and suspension installed... But I see it pop up on various forums from time to time, the google search would explain it :D

Honestly, I sometimes don't understand the hype myself. My point is, I like the car, it's how I wanted it to turn out... but there are many more nice M3s out there. I'm glad some people like it, but my goal wasn't to build a car that pleases everyone or anyone. It'd be boring if I did!

The wheels are just one area I did what I wanted, not what others like. I must say though, mine was the first I've seen with RGRs (yes 1 piece, classic design and forged to be lighter then 3 piece ;)) and many have turned up since then with them. That seems the be the #1 question I get about the car.

As for stock looking, I take that as a compliment. I like the lines of the M3 and don't want to change the appearance.. but if you're basing that statement off the pic Josh posted.. it is a bit old. Currently our cars are very similiar minus the mirrors, wheels and paint color ;)

There's a few newer owners doing some awesome stuff, just nobody automatically thinks of them yet & in my mind you're one of 'em.

But it's nice to see you're modest.

Thanks man. But my car/s have no legs compared to the rest of those guys...not yet. But it wasn't an overnite thing though, I've owned the DS car since early '01. Its the AW that i just recently picked.

Btw, I do think that Cramer's set up is nice. But damn those silver & white Sport Evos, though. I guess we don't think of them 'cuz they're ghosts & musuem pieces that don't get driven or even seen to say the least.

[LINUS]

@Linus, i hope you're not referring to me 'cuz I am in no way in contention with those guys.

You're coming on strong, Man - I been seeing how often you pop up on S14 buyin' the parts. I stand by what I said. There's a few newer owners doing some awesome stuff, just nobody automatically thinks of them yet & in my mind you're one of 'em.

But it's nice to see you're modest.

sickest M3

How about this one?

Or how about one of the rumored white ones also. Sorry I couldn't find pics of it, but they do exist.

angry PM? that was like 2 years ago. ohh, and trust me, I am the last to be jelous on here. My car is in the garage for all but about 3 days of the year uNDER A TARP. I built it for me to look at

I guess I am a little prejiduce about the wheels and yes, 1 piece wheels are ussually not quite the quality of 3 piece.-- most of the time(esp when your comparing 2 BBS wheels)

like I said twice, I am not for one second knocking his car- I also love the look of it. I am just saying that the rims are more e46 style IMO(which I know isnt anything).
period correct to me is meaning, I would never throw e90 series wheels on an e30- as well as e30 m3 basketweaves on a E92


As far as period correct- and my car goes,like I am sure Cramer feels about his car too- I like it and built what I wanted. I for one do not think my car is for one second even close to one of the nicest m3s out there- there are way too many ex DTM cars out there still.

The wheels are heavy - they don't transmit as much of the harshness as you would think - plus they are oversized, forget what size tire he is running.

I didn't think it was harsh at all.

[SchnellerVert]

Smooth with J stocks and 19's? just can't see that. There is no sidewal to asorb bumps and avoid tramlining.

[Jand3rson]

I'm suprised nobody has mentioned M3 Ryan's as one of their favorites.

Wheels are WAY to big, and I don't like the filled and smoothed bumpers.

[george graves]

I've ridden in Ryan's M3 - Not harsh at all. Even with J-stocks. He has that car so well sorted out it sick.

[SchnellerVert]

While, I really like Ryan's, I dislike the 19" wheels he has. I would hate to think of how harsh it rides over bumps and crappy roads.
