FINALLY ! A product for the E36 that makes it feel like a real car !
I really want an E36 M3 someday but every time I drive one it feels too
sterile, kind of like an E30 M3 on a couch. You know, too soft, no vibration,
no cool engine noises like something's loose inside.
Hey, there's your next product, maybe another eccentric-shaft-weight thingy with
some marbles thrown in for sound.
Let us know prices on the production version, hope you can keep it below the
BL/SS price.
