From: On my real nice push bike!
It went rotated with some big old turbo in it and runs E85 but i don't think it really has 600bhp! Its not been on a rolling road its just what the new owner says it has and the bottom end would not take it. Most of all the lag must be nasty!!!!!
This was from the november issue so not long after i sold it.
Looked at a M5 today
Very tempted!!!

I guess he was not joking after all then, must be lagy as hell if using the old setup but gone rotated, great car though when it left

From: MSOC..........middlesex subaru owners club
Pros:
Excellent long distance machine
All the toys
V.fast
V8 noise FTW
Cons:
19 MPG
12K for a replacement engine (from BMW)
Brakes not fantastic
It's a big heavy car so don't expect sportscar dynamics
Not very nice gearshift and not sure if a manual really suits this type of car
Not a massively expensive ownership proposition as long as nothing breaks. Try to find one that has been under warranty for the best part of it's life and look out for oil consumption. 1 litre per 1000 miles is considered acceptable by BMW and you're supposed to use there special oil, about £16 per litre.
I really liked it but came back to Subaru as they're just more fun

They are just so cheap! There is a bmw garage not to far from me selling one for 7k and they say they will give it a full bmw check over and 3 month warranty!
To get a good scooby that is gonna be as good or better then my old car im looking a 10k!!!
Really got to think about this one!
Could get the bmw and a old classic so i can still come to the meets
