I could never bring myself to drive it in the salt/brine and snow. I know their quattro system is amazing but it has many benefits in the dry too, especially with the amount of torque it puts down.
I have a pair of '03 RS6's that I alternate between summer and winter driving. There's nothing that comes close to it for performance and driveability in the my part of the world for winters with a set of good quality winter tires on it.
08 m3, as my signature says. it's kind of a stupid dd,getting about 12 mpg and with $200+ oil changes (9 liters of ~$15 "special m oil"), but it sure is fun. it's a 414 hp,8400 rpm v-8.
I drive a 2008 E90 M3 6MT as my DD as well and to be honest, i think its the Best DD car ever! You must like revving the M3 a lot because i do almost 100% city driving and my average is around 18-19mpg (which is pretty ok for the m3 ;D) Did you have a chance to update your m3's OEM software to the latest 240E? 2008 M3 comes with 80E which is a pretty outdated OEM software. Once you update it you will get better mpg, and smoother engine response and shifts (yes, even shifts better in the 6MT, rev matching is also more delicate feeling). It doesn't make more power per say, but you'll definitely be able to tell a difference.
If you haven't, do a search on m3post.com/forums.
And for oil changes, just DIY lol. I use M1 0w40 for DD as 10w60 oem oil is pretty overkill. Take a read on m3post as well for those discussion. Cheers!!
That is an awesome story. How do the 911 and NSX compare?
2011 Honda Pilot Touring is my daily. Although I have been driving the NSX to work more often lately.
