well from what I hear, Evo 6's aint too quick either...
http://www.aberdeenbeach.co.uk/media/MOV00375.MPG
both look slow as fook there
robbo more like low 5s to 60 for the E46, CSL is mid 4s
out of interest, is there much difference between a standard TME and an M3 Evo?
Obv. the TME is quicker off the line, but not by much is it????

about a second to 60 quicker, maybe quicker to 100. Different story though out on a normal road, chuck in some corners etc and the M3s dead and buried. Add an exhaust, filter, boost controller and the M3s way back on the straight too  I've got a paddle clutch on mine so it launches nicely and should be doing low 4s

was fairly impressed... but then I got into my mates M3 Evo and it made it seem like a wee widdle toy car...!
The boxster is no quicker than a bloody audi TT... and is IMO a crap porsche
But your totally right, they are an entry level porche and were not intended for outright performance
That might be the case, but its not all about speed, a boxster handles so well, and is a great car. I hate it when people like you say its shit because its not as fast as an M3, if its so shit why does it win the roadster section on magazines every year ?
 un-twist that thong little girl!
re-read my posts and tell me where I said its a shit car??!!
(oh and about the roadster winning thing... look at all the other car manufacturers roadsters.. and laugh! The boxster wins cos its up against the likes of a flippin MR2 roadster :lol

mate you always want more power. Got around 340 at the moment, wanted 380-400, then I wanted a stroker kit and 500+ with sick torque levels. Gone back to 380-400bhp idea now, 350ftlb torque+ and the 6 pots + hks suspension to really make it handle and stop well. Prob end up going stroker route and not being happy with 500bhp+
