BMW vs. Mustang GT

[Mavrick]

IF its a 325 then its not a I6 its a 2.5 liter 4 popper, the I6 is the 330 or the 3.0 liter I6. This 330 is the older gen M3 I6 that was in the 96-98ish (or when the M3 was rated lower than the current models I am not that sure on model changes). So if it is a 330 they can go 13.9ish with a good driver and a man. trans. Make sure it is not a 330.

In the BMW number system the last 2 digits denote the engine liter size otherwise the bodies are all the same and that is the first digit.

Only 4cyl BMW's are 318's and 320's. Your wrong.

The first number is always the body style, and the last two numbers are generally the size of the motor but not always. In the case of 323 and 325.. the 323 is actually a 2.5L but a different motor than the 325. And some 325's are 2.5L's and some are 2.7L's.

323 = 170hp/181tq
325 = 184hp/175tq

Both run 0-60 in about 7.1 sec's with the 5 speed manual, which is about mid/low 15's. Auto's are probably in the 16's. Get a good launch and you should beat him.
