The M3 only lost because it was stolen!

People are not surprised at the outcome, just didn't think that it would be as bad as it was.

ROFL, which one because that white car is an E92 coupe. I'm assuming it's an M3 but it could very well be a 335i too.

It could be a 335 with an M3 roof and hood I suppose.

That gap was bigger than I expected. Although having driven the M6, I can say those things are FAST. Even though they carry some weight, the 7 speed SMGs do help with the acceleration. The M3 with the manual allows more room for driver error too.

Looking at your screen name, I would have hoped you'd know the difference between a E46 and E92...

Exactly what I was going to say. How could you mistake that hump in the hood?

First of all it's a 420hp V-8. Second, why is hp the only measure of speed? Power-to-weight ratio is a much better criteria to compare cars. :shakehead
