Can you provide the link to that? I would love to see the comments... 
Another question: Do I require a certain number of posts before I can download from the video vault?

Actually I can't find the topic.. it was maybe with other vids, that's why 
As for the vids, well, it's not really post count related. We give video access to the regular members, the ones taking part in the community and its discussions for quite some time

First of all welcome to JW.
Secondly, you have a very nice collection of cars. Having a M3 as a daily driver is already lovely. But the f355 for the weekend driving and sunny days is even better. Both TVR and f355 are high on my wish list (if I'd have the money ).
It also seems you're taking well care of your cars. Certainly the f355 looks like brand-new. It's always nice to see someone loving his cars like it should.

Hi Wutputt
Taking care of the car is part of the Ferrari experience... While my BMW must cope with automatic car washs I would never do that with the F355. I have spent quite some time detailing the car with a clay bar and waxing it; this is also a good way to get to know all the bits and pieces of the car. The TVR was in better condition when I sold it than it was at time of purchase. But I must also say that the F355 has been very well taken care of by the previous owner. When I was looking around for Spiders I have seen quite a few examples that were not so nice...
This doesn't mean I won't drive the car, there are already way too many "garage queen" Ferraris and I bought mine to have a good time on the road and do some nice trips.
Can't wait for spring...

Welcome to JW Griffith! Those are two excellent cars there, especially the 355. I love 355's and damnit, one of these days I'm gonna own one. They ust need to devalue a bit more! LOL

Not the point, mate. I've had some track time, plus my car is SOOPER FAST1!!!!!
Given I'd much rather have any of his cars, the TVR most notably. I love British sports cars. |
Im not sure if you are joking or you are just naive and full of yourself......
What makes you think that you as a 15 year old can beat a 38 year old guy who have been driving high end sports cars for quite some while.......
I dont care what track experience you have at 15 thats a ignorant comment at best........
Im not dissing your age but a asshole statment is asshole statement what ever the age...... :roll: |
It's hard to put sarcasm on the internet...why else would i call it "SOOPER FAST"?
And it's a Mazda 323 with 82HP, too much weight, an open diff, and a crappy suspension.

well you sure didn't give the impression of being sarcastic, thats what the smily faces and such are for.
So we were right.....you have no chance of beating the Ferrari, because you can barely drive and you have a slow(er) car.

Thanks for posting the link to the video
It's great to see when owners really take pride in their cars and use them as they are intended to be driven!

Awesome cars there! I've seen the video before as well, and I found the link to the JW topic:

Make sure you enjoy the 355!

If you want to get rid of the raspy note on your M3, you should get the UUC Rasp-X midpipe. Here's a clip comparing the stock M3 and an M3 w/ the Rasp-X.
Here's the link on info on the UUC Rasp-X midpipe. UUC products, IMO, have the highest quality craftsmanship, so the Rasp-X midpipe is something that I would strongly consider getting if I had an E46 M3.
And if you want to get a performance muffler, you have to go w/ UUC's. Here's the link w/ info and video clips about their muffler.
