Dont be naive, these types of people do exist, otherwise we would have no prisons to house these types of people.

Based on past road ragers Ive dealt with, some succesfully, some not, and my study of criminal law, I am quite sure the video is authentic.

Ive been told by some that video is a fake so I stand corrected.

Even if it is fake, it is good for people to see what could potentially happen. Don't mess with another man's car....ever. Say this happened in Texas, with a CHL or not, the BMW driver could of shot that guy with no risk of going to jail. Baseball Bat, aggressive behavior, no alternative but to pull a gun...boom. People need to understand it is not a game.

I won't mention what my friend did to some teens in a Lexus RX300 that were harassing him in his G35, but rest assured he let them know that there is no place for bullshit on the road.

so sad that a 33I with minor bolts would rape an M3 anyday, the amount of money that has to be spent on a M3 to keep up with a well tuned 335I is pathetic.

I think the word rape is an overstatement. M3 stock vs 335 stock the M3 wins. 10 grand into either would make one over the other faster sure... but at the end I'd still rather have an M3.

the 335I Doesnt need 10k to be a 11sec car

I had an M3, but now I don't so maybe I'm back to normal again.


thats funny i used to live in fairfax station, va and had E46 M3 and now have a 1993 RX7 and my rx7 was a good bit faster then an exhaust/intake e46 m3 which I ran nice and hard till the i sold it

E92's are quick, but not that fast...

I've posted this in automotive lounge. But since the topic is on bmws and M3s. Check out this 800HP M3 I luckily caught on film up on the way to Las Vegas for Mfest.

I was passenger in my buddies 745. His cousin has the tuned M6 and bolt ons(roughly 550hp) and this beast comes out of no where and eventually catches up to the M6. I think they prob got up to 160mph+

Skip to the 8:00min mark.

lol.. that BMW guy was so stupid! The second he came to a stop I would have flew right past him..

After driving one today it really made me realize just how far cars have come since our FC's though. I'll have my own thread up for it shortly as to not spoil this one though :P

Ahh the hand gun is greater than the bat...

Uh no sir you are wrong. The M3 weighs 3652 with 414 hp. That equates to a power/weight ratio of 8.82. The average FD weighs around 2,700 (most are modified with aftermarket exhausts, etc lowering the weight). An FD with as little as 320 hp has a power/weight ratio of 8.43. I think it's safe to say that 99% of FDs out there have close to 300 rwhp. Even with 280 rwhp that equals 330 or so at the motor. Sorry to burst your bubble but the newer M3's are not "beastly". Physics always wins. :nod::icon_tup:

I'd have to agree. Owning both I can easily say my FC even at 10 lbs would likely pull my M3 up top. If we throw twisties, throttle response, and finesse into the equation and the M wins it hands down.

Both of them are getting 6266 turbos and I plan on making a comparison thread when I find a way to race them against each other. The FC will 'hopefully' be around 500 rwhp and the M will be right around 600 rwhp. No idea which one will be faster in a straight line though, power/weight isn't everything. You also have to take power under the curve, gearing, drag, shift times, etc. into account.
