At the end of the comparison I was sure they were going to pick the other car...

Robert · 05-30-2008, 05:22 PM

+1 I thought M3 was the winner

flukey · 05-30-2008, 05:27 PM

Great video!

Epacy · 05-30-2008, 10:05 PM

Ummm, they represent the price with an assumed/estimated dealer markup, which is total BS. I have never seen any other publication represent the price of the M3 as what some CA dealers MIGHT charge, and the markup is only at the launch, not for the whole first year of the vehicle.
Then, they go on to award the winner and backup their decision by saying the M3 is overpriced and such, more BS. I hate when people make up a stat, then later use that stat to bolster their argument.

I did like the resolution of the video.

Namir · 05-30-2008, 10:08 PM

I'm sure there are some cars on here with 14k of non dinan mods that perform a whole lot better on the track.

1/4 mile was pretty surprising.... 460 lb-ft vs 295?

That said... I wish I had either of these cars haha.

Hahaha that markup thing has to be a joke. I love how that M3 looks.

T i h o r · 05-31-2008, 02:03 PM

Are those power figures for the 335i right though?

Like I wouldn't be surprised if this was a dinan sponsored video to show what the 335i is capable of, but it's still not as good as an m3.

asdflkijd · 05-31-2008, 02:26 PM

, but great vid nonetheless!

What were the track times? I know the 335 got 1.03.8, but what did the M3 get?

Yes he did. I just watched it again.

The M3 was only 0.3 seconds faster.

Damn, I watched it 3 times and never heard it. Must have been thinking about something while he was talking. Oh yeah, the cars.
