I just dun think that a G can keep up with a M3 Convert SMG... maybe a Z with a very good driver like Alberto..but not a G, it is just too heavy

The 05-06 bmw m3's haul ***.!!
I witnessed this at sr27 about a month ago.
The 06 mt g and the 06 mt m3.!!
The m3 walked the g at least 4 cars.!!
and they went from a dig.!!
The m3 quit after he was pulling.!!
I am not a big bimmer fan myself but you gotta give credit where credit is due.!! Plain and simple.!!!

Did you say you were too old to video tape it? I don't get that.

And we should care about this why again?

Oh! I see. This was a fanboy post for the other advocates of street racing - where men are men and sheep are scared. Where ships are wooden and men are steel. Where - oh never mind, you get the idea.

I suppose I should congratulate you on your 'kill' or your 'keep up' or whatever it is you're claiming, right?

Sorry. The best I can do is YAWN...




Does this post sound stupid and unnecessary to you?

Good. Now we're even.

Way to go - thanks for doing your part to keep the streets safer and my insurance rates low. Do me a favor, sell your sedan and buy a coupe.

5-7 cars from 35-100 mph? I don't think so. Faster? Sure. But I don't believe 5-7 cars worth for a second. I should dig up some dynos of an M3 and G35 and simulate a race with equal ideal drivers to see what would happen...

ppl are mixing the regular m3 with the convertible like there's no difference when there is a significant difference... the convertible weighs nearly 3800 lbs!

6mt G and m3 vert both have similar 0-60s and 1/4 mile times. and we all know G drivers are better haha jk.

i've left verts in the dust, picking up a car length by 80-90, and i just drive an auto G... sure it's only street racing but that's my experience

stock 6mt z and smg convertible M3 would be an interesting race but M3 having the Edge.

BTW wrong driver in a M3 = disaster for the car.
I myself have pulled on 2 M3s on the street and lost badly to a 6MT coupe m3 with an excellent driver in it.
