[kiwi328i 118]

Hey guys,

Any of you see this advertised? I cannot tell if he just doesn't know, or we all don't know anything, or whether he is deluded or what? But even more curious...where the heck are these claims from?

What a hoot!

[BreakMyWindow 1874]

Hahaha. The seller is basic.

[Breaker 980]

The gear lever does it for me, where do I sign up

[allan 295]

Errmm... No thanks.

420hp from a standard 4.0?

[rusteee 52]

That's just standy isn't it? im sure mine is 1000+ HP

[eliongater 718]

What on earth...

420hp factory, racing gear box...?

This is just a bit silly

[mynbmr 225]

Well my 530i automatic and it aerodynamic body kit and fake m badge brings out 430 hp,

would you be better buy mine?

[Bigmor 4]

It has a pod filter!

[328bema 18]

Hmm...seems as though he has been misinformed about the specs from whomever it may be, or he is hoping someone is silly enough to believe it....gotta love the ( RARE AS!! ) title Hahaha

[Allanw 1071]

Megatard.

BMW does make a 420hp 4.0 V8 (E90/E92 M3)

Turns out VW now make a 210 HP Beetle, so that's what my '72 Beetle has got, right?

[aja540i 1906]

I need to find out what mods he did to get 40 more hp, so i can do it to mine. Also i think mine might have one of the 200 getrag racing 6 speed gearboxes! Bonus, my car is worth WAY more than i thought!

[kiwi535 538]

the wheels are ridiculous imho.A manual 540 would be ok,thats all it is

[kiwi328i 118]

I am crossing my fingers that this person is not a Bimmersport member.

The answers to questions given are childish. That's not the problem of course, but if this is blatant deception, then people need to know.

[eliongater 718]

The answer to Jeffbebe's question is priceless

"It wasn't bhp . It was fly wheel. And I have my specs .thanks"

Where does he think BHP numbers come from anyway

Agreed, priceless and scarily naïve.

Who are we to argue? He has his specs.

Omg hahaha, just what I needed to read at 12:30am.

I love the "I'll take you for a ride and youll feel it for yaself", Yeah.. to most ex-Integra folks, it would probably feel like 450hp.

Didn't you guys know, a pod filter is worth an extra 50-300hp on its own? Especially if it's mounted right above the headers for that cold air induction like most typical NZ'ers do.

Are any of you members of "Dirty South Car Club" on Facebook? This is the sort of mentality that goes on there daily. I had to stop browsing so often as the ignorance, naivety and general arrogance masquerading as knowledge of cars was almost giving me an aneurysm.

[Michael. 2313]

No point in even trying to explain to some lame duck the issues of his advert.

Let fools be fools.

I'm fordguy17, I couldn't help myself

[jeffbebe 1559]

^ Ha! Me either... What a knucklehead. Wonder if TM picked up on the fraudulent claims and forced him to remove, or if some other poor sot bought it expecting a rocket under the bonnet.

Love how he ignored you comments Jooles lol

haha, have never laughed so much in my life! would be a nice car ex the wheels, blacked out taillights, skull knob and matte black paint stripe which looks like has been done with masking tape and a can of spray paint from supercheap auto... wow 460+bhp someones going to get a bargin, I just hope he didnt withdraw it because someone bought it...then again if you were dumb enough to believe him, you probably deserve to be ripped off..

[MattA 164]

Awesome I just gained massive hp!!!! thats flywheel of course.

Although I don't have a pod filter, racing stripe or a nob gear knob so maybe not.......

I like his 80k claim on the M60, if was one of the last ones off the line it's done circa 4000kms per year.

[Apex 693]

It was not withdrawn, I hear he was offered big money from one of the top local BMW race teams (can't name names) and sold it elsewhere.

A shame, I wanted whatever brakes it has on it, if they can brake that much horse power they must be awesome. Thinking Carbon Ceramic at the very least, possibly Titanium Nickel Coated for less BHP loss to the front wheels.
