You can beat a 320hp Mcoupe???1990StangLX said:my brother has an MCoupe, which is an M3 inline 6 in a Z3 hardtop body. he's also got 3.73's. i have beat him more times than he wants to admitif you can drive, you'll do just fine.
thats the E46 with the 333fwhp, and i have beaten 1 and lost to a few, i think my brother's engine isn't rated that high, like 240 at the flywheel, its from the E36 M3. he's in vegas right now or i'd ask him.JonJon said:You can beat a 320hp Mcoupe???
I thought those were -really- fast...
maybe I got the numbers wrong
but i agree, e36 M3 < 99+ GT.
aaaaaaaah ok. we went to test drive z3's last year, the dealer wanted us to drive the 300+ HP M Coupe. we didn't go back to drive it though1990StangLX said:thats the E46 with the 333fwhp, and i have beaten 1 and lost to a few, i think my brother's engine isn't rated that high, like 240 at the flywheel, its from the E36 M3. he's in vegas right now or i'd ask him.
hmmmm well my brother's is a 2000 or 2001 so maybe they put the more powerful M3 engine into the 02/03's or something...i dunno, its quick but where it shines is in handleing.JonJon said:aaaaaaaah ok. we went to test drive z3's last year, the dealer wanted us to drive the 300+ HP M Coupe. we didn't go back to drive it though

Horsepower output is 240 at 6,000 rpm, while the torque peak of 236 lbs/ft occurs at 3,800 rpm. The car can go from 0 to 60 in 5.9 seconds, with a quarter-mile in 14.3 seconds at 98 miles per hour."
According to that site, the M3 could easily beat a stock GT. I've seen stock GT's run 14's but never a 14.3. Just got me a little worried.
