Breaking axels with stock tires when running a 13.4 1/4 is pathetic.
I like all the excuses the guy comes up with when he realizes BMW's are slow, and unreliable, pieces of shit.
Feeling shitty about being ripped off is one thing, but then trying to make fun of Corvette, Camaro, and Firebrids is just a scumbag move.
Please notice, the DRIVER of the Corvette FAILED and NOT it's rear axels like your piece of shit BMW.
News Flash Jose':
A ZR1 DESTROYS all BMW's on the "race track" and has ALSO ran 9 second 1/4 mile times with a manual transmission.
Now, go take your bean eating, german humping, american hating ass and run south of the border.
the Bimmer will get you late way more often. here in L.A. anyway
two way different cars, I wouldnt not want to crazy mods an M3 besides suspension. but an SS would be faster cheaper.
If one could afford such car they would be able to keep your car in your sig, no?
M3 and keep your car

What he said. There is nothing left to do to the M3, it is already geared very aggressively, and there is basically nothing reasonable left to do to the motor. Who the hell wants a 4.0L v8 anyway? That is pathetic. And it gets 14/20 mpg!!
Intake/Exhaust/Tune on an E92 M3 will get you 400 to the wheels if that helps.
It's true, the extra 5mph the M3 is getting is nothing to sneeze at.....but the LS3 can EASILY be modded to smash the BWM.
Although I HATE Euro-trash BMW snobs, I have to admit that 300+lbs weight advantage the M3 has is SIGNICANT and cannot be undone.
Ripping apart a brand new Camaro for weight savings is just stupid.
Not to mention, the BMW can be ripped apart for weight savings as well.
The lower weight and DCT trans is where the Camaro can't match the M3.
But, I'd take the Camaro, add a TVS 2300 & headers, then pocket the money saved by skipping the M3.
Well with car and driver magazine editors behind the wheel, the SS Camaro runs a 13.0 @ 111. The best time I've seen on c&d (again magazine racing is the best judge of what stock for stock will do, I'm not touching modding) for the M3 is a 12.6 @ 113. However there was a comparison test where there best time was a 12.9 @ 111. 300 lbs lighter or not, those trap speeds are pretty close, I'd call this one a driver's race.
In the curves I wouldn't tackle the M3 until after a few suspension upgrades, the M3 pulled an 8:05 nurburgring time, and the Camaro did a respectable 8:20, but still not in the M3's league in the curves.
The Ms gearing really helps it out alot.
LMR got a 111mph out of their LTs,tune and cai 2010 SS Camaro
