Lennon · 09-28-2002, 02:58 PM

Where's the "hello and welcome to last century" pic when you need it.

Kal · 09-28-2002, 07:24 PM

that was a sweeet video...

too bad it broke down...lol

Apparently there was a lengthy discussion on this vid.
If you look carefully at the end, where the car 'broke down', it is the exact duplicate where the car braked heavily to make the U turn earlier in the video. Notice that the end how they removed the date and time.

Story goes that the car did get away, but his dad later turned him in when he found out that his son took the car out for a joyride.

I like how the cop seems to be bragging how his car 'has more power than the general public.' Well, if I was that cop, I wouldn't have been on the video. He should be ashamed of himself. Here's a 15 year old kid, who isn't legally able to drive, out drive a highly trained police officer, in his 'More power than the general public' car. Ya right.

That cop better hope he never faces a late model M3 or M5 with an experienced driver behind the wheel!

that practicular E30 m3 acutally 240HP?...during the voice over the monalogue stated 240HP is that correct?....anyways in the very near future I be getting a E30M3,since high school(many,many years ago) I always wanted one.Mid life crisis on a budget maybe?

swisherchico · 10-01-2002, 06:50 PM

I also am not sure on the 240hp either, I always thought the U.S version of the e30 m3 had 192 hp, and 170 lbs of torque, maybe the euro versions have 240, but from what I know, the U.S only has 192. If this is all true, then that cop with 325hp doesn't know how to drive (after watching him spinout and almost hit one of his own officers I would doubt his expirenced driving abilities).

Those cop cars arn't that fast, it would be easy to lose one!!! belive me I work for ford In London/St.Thomas, We build all the crown vics and under cover cruzers for them, I take them out for lunch all the time. I love driving them though, everyone moves out of your way and the police all wave at you when you drive buy them!!! ha ha It's cool shit. .

Maybe I'll bring one to our next event!!!
