Give this person the corner office, 1000 shares of google stock, and one month paid vacation. How often has anyone raced someone at a stoplight to 120+? If you're actually going to race the car you're going to go to a track. Then the M2 blows the 3 Series out the frame with little effort. I say take the money spent on the motor and make a real luxury 3 Series like the Lexsus ES 350 |

My point is that an M car is made with weight ratio....chassis stiffness And Bunch of other parameters to make it a good sports cars. When these magazines and so called YouTube reviewers declare results based on only drag race only, that's what I call stupid. You want to review a car only on drag race then do it on the Demon...that's what that car is made for. |

That said....I've taken down 340xi on track very easily in my Z4M and 340i is faster. We are talking about M2...which is way ahead of Z4M as well. |

95% if not more people buy m cars and never visit a track so racing stop light to stop light is really all they have. Bmw would drastically reduce the m car product offerings or make them even more expensive if the only people buying them were people taking them to the track. This video was just meant to show the 340i is close in acceleration to the M2. You either want a manual for the connection and driving experience or you don't because auto gear boxes passed manuals for speed over a decade ago. Not to mention AWD compared to RWD is night and day.

https://jalopnik.com/heres-a-silly-r...1829816074/amp However when we bought our Q5 a few months ago, our sales guy said that they were expecting at least one of the RS4 or RS6 Avants. Realizing that sales guy are perhaps not the most reliable source. |

Exactly, they have the better car, just because a newer 3 series may be able to beat it in a streetlight race, they have to trash talk someone else's family conveyance

I will have to admit anything over 10 seconds seems slow. In the 90s tuners we're running 8 second quarter miles with civics so the industry should have caught up by now.

How close will the new M340 be to the current M3? I would guess less then 0.5 seconds in 1/4 mile and for about 15k less!
