I think many enthusiasts recognize this is truly a drivers car. Although, many owners may not see this. Hindsight is 20/20, and I don’t think I appreciated my ITR for what it truly was at the time.
I think that’s why you see a lot of M2 and CTR cross over. Best drivers car BMW has made since...
Break in period is almost over. The car delivers and I try very hard to be objective with the cars I’ve owned. A lot of it is nostalgia and the feeling of mixing the ITR/Evo (see write up in my thread). The only thing I plan on changing right now is unplugging the pumped in sound.
I may get...
whoa whoa whoa. stop. CTR is good, but the M2, M4, TTRS, GT350 are all faster.
the ring time was in a caged car with cup2 tires. It is not faster around the ring in stock form (full interior on Contis).
Coming from an M2, this car is NOT faster. Sorry. Is it more satisfying? Yes.
yeah none of this spring business. If I mod the suspension on this car it’ll have to be better than stock... and that means some high end dedicated coil over system.
Welcome, just got my CTR last weekend and it literally took me 3 years of on and off searching and 2 cars in between (Focus RS and M2). I hope the hype remains real- the car is fantastic so far.
Car doppelgängers, I like it. Also have an X3m40i.
Can’t wait to get more seat time, but since I’m older and am beginning to like more of those creature comforts, I do think the CTR will take that top spot as it appears to just do everything well.
Selling the M2 soon, going to be sad to see it go.
Have not driven the Veloster N. Didn't really entice me in the least bit, but I hear it's a good car. I needed more space anyway.
Having now owned two cars with the gimmicky pops and crackles, I think I'm over it.
I've been around this forum for a while now. I've been on Honda-Tech since 2000. And, I finally found a CTR at the right price here in SoCal. I have driven a lot of cars, but owned fewer. I'll make comparisons to those I've owned. Here it goes (this is more of a stream of consciousness, happy to...
indio. They’ve been great so far. I think they just want to move cars.
good financing rate too.
even though they have adm, the belong on the nice list given that this is SoCal.
