I dont see the 333 as a track car. There is way too much body roll. However i find it awesome as a long distance gt car of sorts. The 145kw feels like 250. It really kicks you into the seat. Even though the ride is soft and comfy for low ride height the handling is quite good but not for a track. I have felt the 325is pull and the 333 feels so much more powerful. The 325is sounds better because m20. 333 sounds a little like a ford v6. Its sounds more raw compared to the sweet purr of the 'is'
The 333 had 200 units made. The last 3 digits on the VIN number said which number car it is. Some have been written off and some rotted away. There are possibly only around 40 cars known in existence throughout the world. So when you see the price people are calling dont be shocked. I have no intentions of ever selling mine and that does not stop people from making insane offers. Some say buy e46 m3 for that money.
The 325is had 500 units built from what I've heard. Again making it a limited edition car. Hence the high price for ones that are for sale. Supply demand story.
