I agree with hyun. its gonna be tough to beat an m3. I had a friend (on a M3 forum) who pulled a 12.5 STOCK! yes he has videos.
where are the videos?

PLEASE Show the video... because that my friend is the biggest BS statement of the year... I'm not sure what year model M3 he has but a 1/4 time for an M3 is ~13.5-13.2... So to say he went a full second faster is VERY VERY hard to believe... And if he did run a 12.5 he is not stock.

This thread is useless!!why are we comparing to something thats not comparable. It's like this then. I'll buy a Lambo and start going around forums to see what mods will it take to beat this car...man.. look at price/performance difference.

I suggest you get a modified M3 to beat another M3.

I don't see what the big deal is about the M3. Yes, yes yes, they are faster, but I would rather save a buttload of money and buy an STI if I really wanted a fast car.

The G is fast enough and looks bada$$, that is probably why we all bought it.

Let me quote myself,

The STI is much faster than the M3 and probably half the price. Just another Beemer.

M3 have better top end but quarter mile the sti will win. Sti have small turbos so once it reaches top spds, the turbo runs out of breathe and that's where the m3 takes over.

Just get a skyline GTR or a Supra Mkiv. this both cars are monster stock and Loaded . to bad we can't buy a cheap skyline out here only in canada EEEEA! And they dont take much to free up the power to BPu(360+ to 400HP). M3 can be stomp on Loaded or stock
