z4 3.0 si vs e92 m3

O-cha · 03-03-2008, 02:13 PM

I was in the z4 some guy was in the m3. He was a shitty driver but still it's ridiculous for a z4 to kick the crap out of the M3 even if he was a bad driver.

VERY disappointed with the m3. Exhaust note on that car is absolute shit as well.

x5love · 03-03-2008, 02:20 PM

Ridiculous?

How bout impossible?

Have you driven the M3 yourself? No? So how can you be very disappointed with it??

gadget · 03-03-2008, 02:28 PM

Is today the official post a load of BS day???

Das M · 03-03-2008, 02:35 PM

did the guy driving the M3 not have any legs/feet with which to push the gas pedal because that is about the only way I could see this happening

O-cha · 03-03-2008, 03:19 PM

It was part of the BMW breast cancer drive thing. Like I said it was a really bad driver in the M3, but even so there should have been no chance.

OBI_agent · 03-03-2008, 06:07 PM

Maybe, he didn't let the clutch go while pressing the accelerator

hov333 · 03-03-2008, 06:10 PM

maybe he confused the pedals, how bad of a fuckin driver can u be....damn, they shouldn't have let him in the M, probably ruined the poor car

footie · 03-03-2008, 06:23 PM

If a Z4M wouldn't work with a new M3 then what chance has a humble 3.0L model got.

Year's_End · 03-03-2008, 06:36 PM

The driver needs to use the pedal on the right. He was probably working the clutch and brakes and going "wtf?".

O-cha · 03-03-2008, 06:45 PM

But even the worst driver ever shouldn't have had a problem. And he was seriously going for it we lined up and everything.

Anyway, the exhaust though, really really sucks. Don't believe the videos you hear.

Year's_End · 03-03-2008, 07:20 PM

I'm actually not going to be surprised if the exhaust isn't up to expectations. As was the case with the e46 m3. We gotta wait for the CSL.

Hawkeye · 03-04-2008, 11:21 AM

lol, I thought this was going to be another one of those "which car is faster" threads and I was going to

Having a 3.0si I can say there is no way it should beat an M3... unless it was a beauty competition

E90330iS · 03-05-2008, 01:54 AM

He must really have been a bad driver..

You're right. I'd rather have the unique look of a 3-series.

buuuuuurn

both cars look nice but the Z4 is like a statue while the 3 is more classically pretty

back on subject... perhaps it was a 1/8 mile race and the M3 driver couldn't launch for shit?

mmm def · 03-05-2008, 11:14 AM

Of course the M3 should have waxed the Z4 3.0, but if I recall the Z4's are running 5.1 to 60..that's not slow. So you catch the M3 napping and it will take a bit to catch up.

3.0si run 5.5 or 5.6 0-60 sepends on source
M runs a 4.9 0-60

You should post this over at M3post.

NM27 · 03-05-2008, 03:01 PM

BS !!
no fucking way a z4 3.0 can beat the m3, not even if the driver was a 350 pound fatass, (well maybe but...) anyway it's something logical, if not even the Z4M beats the m3 , do you think the 3.0 will?

Cherrs...

Z4M and M3 would be a close one. They have the same components for the most part.

So what is the point of this post? You beat the driver, not the car. End of story?

I just beat a F430 yesterday with my 350z. I'm dissapointed in the F430, sure he was a bad driver but that doesn't mean jack shit the car is still retarded. Oh and the exhaust sounds stupid.
