Definately not 600 kilos, seeing how its simply a modified production Ford GT. ROUSH's aim was not to make it a full street-legal race car, it was merely to make it faster and more powerful, as well as add more appeal to the consumer. Although I believe that a reduction in weigth would have added a lot more performance and interest for the true performance minded costumer.
Its difficult to say which one looks better, the new M3 V8 or the Audi S5. Both of them are one of the best from BMW & Audi AG.Apart from the fact that the bimmer is leagues ahead in terms of power & speed than the Audi, the V8 was pretty much unnecessary, the R6 was good enough...really..even now, ill prefer the M3 CSL over the new M3.

Simon: Nils? You can close in now. Nils?
John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.

Never even heard of the S5 till I read this comment... but the front end of the M3 reminds me of Jay Leno. Hopefully AC Schnitzer will create (no pun intended) a chin spoiler to clean up the front's looks.
The V8 sounds sweet but that thing is a porker at 3600lbs.

My dream car?
I'd like to make a shorter hardtop model of this.
and put a nice big supercharged engine in it, naturally.

I reakon its the kind of car you have to turn in 100m before the apex to combat understeer and then have to straighten up half way round to stop the rear of the car cutting the corner completely. As long as it has a good handbrake or lots of torque I should be OK though, get my drift?
Naturally its a GT car and should never be used on anything other than a completely straight piece of road, crusing at 120km/h wearing a cigar and shades with a pretty young French girl on your arm.

...well that does has a rear spoiler, although not very functional!
