HEY PEOPLE, I ACCEPTED THE RACE. Hello?! Anyone intelligent around??!!

Ahhhhh, the sound of rice being cooked.

Chim-chim, if you don't like my opinion of you, improve yourself.

Just because I own you doesn't mean I'm going to feed you.

Now, that's an improvement! Still, how do you come up with these witty remarks, especially after making a fool of yourself in your previous post?!

Keep trying kid.

The real question is, who's reading and explaining my replies to you?

You are a living BMW driver cliche.

BTW what happened to that sweet *** pathfinder with the dope wheels?

If you want a FRIENDLY race, then i am all for it. I am up to any race. ****, i am not gonna put up my hard earn $$ for some cheap thrills...even if i drive an Enzo versus a Yugo. Anything can happen.

Now, i suggest you listen to your smarter brother (even though he's a lawyer). You're an idiot who does not know the value of a hard earned dollar. Sorry, but i work for my $$.

Like i said, if any of you are up to a friendly race, then call me up. I am not backing down from anything. Bring a freaking camera...i don't care. But, i ain't gonna put up my cash for anything stupid.

Are we clear?? I did not think that i had to explain myself because i expected more common sense. I was wrong.
Everything you just wrote spells "defeat". That bit about the Enzo is bs. If you had one you wouldn't be shaking in your pants about your "hard earned dollar", against a lowly stock C32.

Funny thing is I've done the same test with 2 work colleagues who have black C32's & I won 8 out of 8. That's right a 3-way race with 2 C32's & 1 M3 & the M3 won. I don't have videos but when we went to the track together I did a 13.0 @ 108 bone stock & the C32 did 13.6 @ 106 with race fuel. MY speed over the 1/2 mile was also quicker so he wasn't catching me at all.

Rolling runs are a bit closer, but a strong M3 edges away. I see 3 magazine tests on 3 different continents have the M3 quicker in the 30-70mph rolling runs though the gears. Surely the driver isn't an issue in such a test.

Check out Sport Auto's results on Track-challenge.com. They use professional drivers like Dirk Schoeyman (former Nurburgring record holder). The tested the M3 vs C32 as follows:

Acceleration M3 C32
0 - 40 Km/h 1,6 s 1,8 s
0 - 60 Km/h 2,5 s 2,7 s
0 - 80 Km/h 3,9 s 4,1 s
0 - 100 Km/h 5,2 s 5,5 s
0 - 120 Km/h 7,1 s 7,6 s
0 - 140 Km/h 9 s 9,9 s
0 - 160 Km/h 11,4 s 12,5 s
0 - 180 Km/h 14,7 s 15,6 s
0 - 200 Km/h 18,1 s 19,8 s

M3 pulls over a second from 100-200 km/h. Can't be driver at those speeds. They have pro's anyway.

But all over the world from Australia to Greece to South Africa to Germany, all mags get the M3 quicker. I don't know if its the fuel or what but in the US, C32's seem to be quicker judging by this board.

2002 C32 Black/Charcoal
Yet another example of my motto (which I never follow dammit!). . . never read a thread on this board if you see more than 50 posts. Now, for my two cents:

You are all a bunch of simplistic idiots. The outcome of the race depends on at least 20 factors. Cool day: C32 has the advantage. High atmospheric pressure: C32 has the advantage. Excess weight in both cars: C32 has the advantage. Two morons racing: C32 has the advantage (true auto tranny).

Curiosity question: with speed limiters removed from both cars, who tops out higher (C32 or M3)? A nice 180 plus run would really settle the score!

Have a look at Sport Auto's time slips. Or EVO. Or Austraila's Drive mag. Or New Zealand's Auto Mag. Or Greece's Auto Express. I can go on.

Ot start with the US mag tests. I believe all got the M3 quicker. See a thrend here?

But let's look at it objectively. With an auto you brake launch it to maybe 2000rpm or so. In a manual, with a good driver, you can rev it up to 4000-4500 depending on the surface, slip the clutch & with a good LSD & wide rubber you are doing 60ft's well under 2.0.

If the auto's got more horespower, then it might run you down. But a torque convertor saps power to the wheels so I doubt a stock C32 makes much more RWHP than an M3. A few hp isn't going to be enough to catch a similar powered car from behind.

Torque I see you ask. Well torque is for pulling out tree stumps. Horespower always wins in a race. After the launch (where the M3's ahead anyway) an M3 will never see anything below 6000rpm again. Redline each gear & you will actually be in the 7000-8000rpm range in every gear. C32 will be in its upper few thousand rpm range as well.

Here's where you have to compare the power curve of the M3 from 7000-8000 vs the C32 6000-7000 (or whatever). A roots type S/C has a big drop-off at high rpm compared to NA. I bet the M3's curve is on the way up at 6500 & the C32's is dropping fast.

But a shorter geared car gets more power to the wheels anyway. As we all know a gear ratio is a torque multiplier.

Rolling at low revs is another story & that's where torque rules.

Ahhh, another moment in history...a dumbass doesn't realize he's a dumbass.

Sure, i will post my tire size on my 4RUNNER...265/70/16. Before you start looking it up, it's STOCK SIZE, idiot. The name of tire: BFG AT KO.

Marky, you're the one that's making a fool of yourself...I am enjoying the ride very much! Thanks...keep it coming.

Good C32 Driver Bad SMG Driver *video Proof*

Any AMG 32 Drag video's beat this?

I'm an owner of a 03 E46 M3 SMGII and have been considering a C55, from what I have read the C55 will only come in automatic? is this true or will there be a 6sp version?

all AMG's are automatic with selectable gears.

AMG's have yet to come out with a manual gearbox in a production car
