Really fun today- big thanks to superstreet for hosting. Lots of awesome cars out here today.

Yeineken · 10-13-2015, 07:12 PM

Saw the videos on Instagram. Completely awesome. You should have some custom racing dog seats in the back

I wish there was a way to more easily transport the dogs in the car. They are finally used to the exhaust and hard mounting. I think the recaro being so tight helps them keep calm too.

You missed a good time. There was a lot of very interesting cars out there. Really fun.

Your a lucky man my friend.
Keep up the good work (just don't forget the pics!)

Thank you. I need to update the thread more. I have photos from the 4.6L swap I need to update and I am sitting on track footage.

You are killing it with this build my friend, I cannot wait to see some updated vids. You need someone to do a revisited feature film on it like Matt Farah did the first time around.

Thank you. Matt Farah wants to do another video once the Raze GT drops. The original 4.6L one will be featured as well. It needs a revisit.

Thank you. It is still my dream car.

Are you gonna do One Take with Matt Farah? It'd be very nice to have you in the car talking about it.

i would do a full feature again. it would likely be more focused on the raze gt build but I'm sure the clone 4.6l would make an appearance.

850tgul · 10-19-2015, 08:11 PM

great stuff man

Ajohno818 · 10-24-2015, 05:57 PM

Brilliant.
I will look forward to the pictures, I'm watching this thread with great interest.
The Matt Farah video actually made me fall in love with your (these) cars.
So much so that I became a very proud owner of a 2011 white 135i (best colour &#128521

less than 2 weeks ago!
Keep up the inspiration!
I can't wait to see the next smoking tyre video!!

There was a tremendous amount of teamwork on this build from a likeminded group of partners. The success of this build would not have been possible without everyone's contribution.

Here is the partner thank you video.

Solo_M_Tech · 11-12-2015, 04:34 PM

Your car reminds me why I need a better paying career! hahah!

trainerjon · 11-12-2015, 10:43 PM

Outstanding Video Marco!!!

Any particular reason why you used an England sourced parts car? I've been shopping around the usual suspects for a US sourced M3 parts car.

Fantastic build and kudos for taking it the extra mile with hard mounted everything. Commitment!

Hope to see this car around the Bay!

At the time it was cheaper to get a car in England. Please make an e91 m3. It's on my dream list

Looks really naked without the sponsor stickers.

I assume they'll be going on the GT?

In northern california. It was not only raining but was 40* out. I knew the r888 were not optimal in wet but it honestly felt like I was driving on ice on a few turns. Time to get some street tires.

Keeping the car nude for a while. Its winter and the old decals were over a year old. The car is also retired so I can keep it a little more low key.

Here is the car's 'retirement/ sponsor thanks video ' if you didnt see it yet.
