New to TR Turbo BMW E46
Just wanted to stop by and say hi
i'm new to the TR fourms but not a newbie at all when it comes to cars
currently i have a 700rwhp turbo E46 bmw, a supercharged 2005 330ci track car(this is still under work but will shortly be making its debuts at autocross meets soon), a 2004 325ci daily driver, and sadly a 2000 toyota camry for commuting to school cuz i have had a lot of ppl key my car or try to do other stupid things to them when i go to classes at university
a list of previous rides:
98' Rsp blue hard top Supra with upgraded turbos and 6-spd
2003 Yamaha R6
2002 Yamaha R1
2002 Hamann BMW M3 V8 SMG
i am also currently looking into buying a large pickup and a large trailer so that i can tow both show/track or however you want to classify them as cars to the meets that are out of state or cross counrty
hopefully soon i will be able to start to meet more of the guys on here

WOW! 
Nice cars!!! Welcome to TampaRacing. My brother is a BMW fanatic. He would love to see your cars. He's had tons of BMW's. Nothing insanely fast like that though.

Nothing insanely fast like that though.cureently i am working on the turbo E46 so it will be down for hopefully not longer then another 2 weeks but soon you will see me zooming around the bay area in it
it will be running on low boost most of the time just because i really dont need 700hp+ for normal driving so if anyone ends up running into me and walling me by a car length or 2 dont think its cuz i dont know how to drive or my car is slow, you are most likely running me when i'm on low boost and i'm just doing it for fun
all that money invested in the car i'm not gonna take my chances of the 5o saying i was out street racing and trying to revoke my license or impounding my car
eitherways hope to meet more ppl at some TR meets soon

sounds VERY nice, i worked for a BMW dealership for a long time, and i cant think of any other car i would rather have than an E46 M3, although an M5 would no doubt have to take precence
i do like the E36 body also, but you have to have them modded to do much of anything to be honest

VERY nice! Hahaha. Your signature is great. I agree with the street racing though. It's not worth it if you really respect what you have into your car and I do. That's why I don't street race.
My brother mayyyy be selling his 540i and '01 M5 to get a new M5. We shall see!
