This is why diesel engines would be better. If you cant find a diesel station, or supply. You can pretty much use any cooking oil. That means restaurants or any fast food chain can be a fuel stop. ( you do have atleast filter it before it goes in the tank) Older diesel motors are better imo. They are mechanical so less stuff to go wrong, and lasts longer.

Yeah man. In NY, during a zombie apocalypse, on an M3, you're screwed.

On the OTHER hand, RIGHT after it all goes down, and if highways and interstates are clear of walkers and crashed vehicles, you'd have the time of your life...until the gas ran out!

If there was a Zombie Apocalypse, think about how annoying it would be to take the M3 out to 'run away'.

1. You would need to avoid all potholes and speed bumps while these walkers are chasing after you.

2. You can't run the zombies over with that plastic bumper! that front lip would scratch!

3. Car is loud, the oh so sexy glorified intake and exhaust note, would attract the zombies, especially the car enthusiast ones lol.

4. Gas. We all know we drive a gas guzzler. We can get for 200 miles before fill-up

5. The shitty Zombies will damage the paint! crawling all over your car, is that an individual color? they don't care.



So, fact is, if there was ever one, remember to steal your neighbor's hybrid.

I think its funny as hell that u thought of this. All good points lol

"The Push Start" with the brakes, how the f does that work say, if you pressed stopped while the car was moving, would you need to step on the brakes to start it back up?? if so, def. gotta re-consider.
I tried it this morning. Couldn't even turn off the car.

okay, maybe this thread will turn into a more informative one.

So I did a test on my 550 today.

Basically, like how your video is, when the car is rolling, pressing the start/stop button once, it doesn't do anything.

SO. If the car is rolling, foot off the brakes/gas, click it once, nothing happens. Click it TWICE the car shuts off. IF you press on the brakes, the car will slow down, and when it comes to about 2mph, the car will jerk and jump into Parking.

Instead of stepping on the brakes once the car is (double click off, rolling car) off, and you want to start it back it, without touching the brakes or gas, just click it back once and the car will start up, but will jump into Neutral. Simply just put it back in drive and you're good to go. No Walker will get you now!

I honestly would ditch my M3 and go with my X5 and all my weapons and gf. I could care less about the piece of shit M3 in an end of the world scenario. It will be worthless, period.

Love the walking dead. Honestly I'm taking my M3 even if its the last drive I ever have with her. It is also convenient as hell. easy access into the trunk through the center to grab whatever weapon I may have. Stupid fast even though you only get 200 miles. Mine has navigation so at least I know where im going. Great handling to avoid hitting randomly placed cars and dead people.

Screw the M3. Ill get me one of these with those two post apocalyptic gun slingers and ride it out until the end... They look like more fun that trying to use the fixaflat kit in the M3...

I would definately jump in a Fiat Multipla (also know as the ugliest car in history). I quite sure even zombies would be afraid of touching that piece of crap...
