Out of curiosity... Why'd he choose to get a US spec C4S instead of a Euro one if you're in the UAE?

hmmmm, lets see, i'd go with the C4S for now, it'll get you to the hotel in no time! :) ....also, make sure you have no luggage, the trunk is tiny! lol

TechArt is is cool, but unfortunately my bro is not the car freak that i am,so this car is staying bone stock! ;0 did i mention it's an auto?:dunno ....dont blame me, my bro hates stick, but then again from the ouside, no one will ever know! :)

oh and one last comment, i hate tiptronic! it's too gimicky! i'd rather drive plain 'ol automatic than than thing, shifting is just slow!

other than that, the car is gorgouse, the handling will put the M3 to shame, but then again it does have turbo suspension and brakes, so you can't argue with that! :buttrock

i think it's time my M3 gets a suspension upgrade!

The only reason I say that it is "US spec" is because it has the bumper boobs on either side of the rear plate, and the plate sizes are not the normal Euro ones (like on your M). Better way of putting it would be, that it might have been destined for the North American market.

Anyway, they are both really nice cars, most enviable ;)

oh ok, i see what you mean, actually here in the UAE we use both styles, the euro and US plates. So yah the car is a euro spec C4S. :cool:

hehehe, i still have my eyes on the ACS sport suspension, gonna research here and there before shelling out the $1600. After driving the C4S, i can't stand the bouncy feel of the stock suspension! :dunno

any idea how much harder the ride is with the ACS sport susp. on stock 19s?
