Smoked an M3!

Hi all, I just smoked a 98 M3 in my stock TL! It this possible, or was the driver just a moron? Does any one have 1/4 mile times for the M3? We were only racing for a short time, but I began to pull away at 65-70. It feels great to have a kill! By the way, when my lease is up on the TL, I will SERIOUSLY be considering the CL-S. You guys have an awesome vehicle.

Good kill. But that guy sucks the big one. Unless it's a rebadged 3 series. It's always fun to go against the big boys... nothing to lose and everything to gain =D!

The M3 is at least .75 to 1.0 second faster than the CL-S 0-60.

15.3 1/4 for a 96 auto hahah i think even a cl-p can beat that. and im sure the 96 to 98 didn't have that much of a differance if they where both auto. but I could be wrong.
