@GodlessMartyr666 ive had mine since 78K and i drive it like this every day with no problems. has 140K on it now.

@IrishChris1979 hah thats absolutely right about the transmission not being able to handle the power, the continental I had last year died after six months, it was the transmission lol. I loved the car but wasn't about to spend a few grand on it to get it back to where it needed to be, plus I crashed it into a median @ 40mph around this time last year hahahah it was a trooper of a car tho, I abused it and it took the punishment VERY well until the day it croaked lol. got a 2001 LS v8 sport now.

@GodlessMartyr666 Yeah, something's not right there. My brother's '01 conti shifts at 5600-5700 rpm max depending on the gear it's in. Watching other videos on youtube, I noticed most of the other continentals are shifting right around the same rpm as my brothers car. His tranny only has 20k miles on it and it shifts like new. The redline is 6500 so if yours is shifting at 7k rpm, that's not good lol. He does wish it shifted at 6500 though. I was told it's b/c the tranny can't handle it.

damn man your AX4N is running alot nicer than mine when I drop the hammer and don't let up the sucker hits 7000+ rpms and shifts REAL hard, feels like the brakes are applied when they haven't been it's gotta be a bad slip or a clutch fault but either way I doubt she will be around more than the next two or so years, the oldest of the M3's are cheap-ish now and I'm looking @ a nice hardtop for next year *.. with a sunroof of course!

[gearhead291]

yea. check my new 0-60 it's much better then this one.
