Please DO NOT start a flame war. Was it anyone here? The guy in the M3 said ya'll spoke and everyone was cool.

even with those mods there is no way that m3 would put 3 cars on a 6 speed cl-s. if the story is true, the cl driver must have missed a shift.

And what about that Web??? guy, he really didn't have anything to say about racing or his own encounters, all he did was bash on Hondas/Acuras, about how he got a lemon car, and therefore all of them are slow and sucks...
That's the guy I really can't stand..... :o

still a Masshole
Funny thing is what the guy in the RX-7 has in his sig:
12.6 (Estimated by Petit Racing)
Dude hasn't even taken it to the track yet boasts that number.
I believe the 3 car lengths with those mods. not completely unrealistic. Good story/kill nonetheless. Most of those guys were pretty cool and didn't shit on the CLS. I like when a person can race and win or lose not be an A-hole!
yeah, I just reached my 1000th post!

his wife has an 03 cl-s6 which he took to the track and did a 14.1
he also did a stock s2000 at 13.66
so go figure, racing depends mucho on the driver

I'll just add that the e36 M3 has the highest 1st gear ratio of ANY car ever produced in production. Higher than Ferrari... Anyone.
They're a monster off the line because of this and they only weigh 3100lbs. My buddy has one and I'd think twice about running him in my G for anything other than a beer.
And he's had some Dinan work done to it.
Don't the e36s have the same motor in them as the e46s??? Certainly not as tuned as the e46, but...
I certianly think it's possible to see an e36 M3 put some distance on a CLS6spd...
Sorry...
Just my $0.02...

SHIFT_over.so.I.can.see
hmmm... 14.2 on a stock '97 M3? somethin' smells a bit fishy... I've walked M3s all day long over and over again... my car is stock basically too. most of my frineds cars are not modded heavily either except for maybe dinan intake and ECU...

e36 M3 = 3175 lbs.
CLS 6spd = 3446 lbs.
271lbs...
Quite a difference.
Secondly...
When I said "some distance" I meant a car length. Not a football field. Maybe I should have spelled it out for you.
I'm not sure why people here think the e36 is a slouch. It's not. Its got the gearing, isn't nearly as porky as the CLS6spd. Oh and it has RWD... That usually helps.
The original argument was that an e36 put 3+ car lengths on a CLS6spd. I don't know if I buy that, but I certainly would buy in on it beating a CLS6spd.

first of all one of my boys has a 99 M3 5 speed and even he told me that there is no way that it runs 14 flat stock...hes an awesome driver but even he can admit to that. i can see a 6speed cl-s taking a stock e36 and that guys story about 3-4 car lenths is bullshit!

i have to agree with you on the fishy part. there seems to a huge inconsistancy to the performance of the 95-97m3 some are fast some are not. i've tested this theory many times before i bought my cl-s 6spd/navi. i had an 01 toy celica GTS 6spd w/ injen intake and jardine exhuast. just coming off the light i hit it pretty good not seeing the beemer yet he roles up beside me so i drop it in second at about 45mph we both boned out. if youv'e ever driven a new celica gts you know how ballistic it is when the vvti-l (toy. version of vtec)kicks in. anyways he was probably surprised when he didn't pull away from me. i know from a dead stop the beemer would have got the jump on me. the celica didn't make any pwr til 6000rpms. the point is I know my cl-s would spank the heck out of the celica i used to have if that's any indication.
