if i had a full leather racing suit and the money to fork out on going out for a track day i would be all over it, but i'm not in such a hurry to risk crashing my bike on the track, i think i can handle going in a strait line on an empty free way with a cocky m3 driver, and if i get in a hairy situation with the 5-0 well what happens happens, its fun, and its not like we are doing this in rush hour traffic. i'll take the risk of jailtime and or loosing my license for years to have some fun once in a while... you only live once bro.

if you've never had the urge out on the streets i think theres something wrong with you. but i'm not rich like you to be going to the track whenever i have a woody for speed, i just hit up the local country strait road.

My friends M3 is supercharged right from the factory with paddle shifters, ill take a pic of it sometime.

The badge is allways RED on the supercharged models.

I've never heard of this before. I think you have your facts twisted homie. Aftermarket supercharger and aftermarket badge sure. But not from the factory.

Bandit, I'm telling you: you're incorrect. No BMW comes from the factory supercharged, ever. Maybe it's a Dinan S3 model, but they don't change the badge, they add a "dinan" badge on the left side of the trunk.
The //M badge looks like this, it always has a red stripe:

Wrong. No Supercharged M3 from the factory - EVER.

Also, BMW leaves all badges the same, but they're available to purchase from plenty of stores online as stickers to slap over your current ones.
