Smoked my buddy EVO X from a dig and a roll w/ my M3. His X-GSR had intake, exhaust and tune.

No sweat.

The New M3s with the carbon fiber roof and Self shifting twin clutch is sick. As soon as you hit that lever to upshift its done. I ran a 12.5 at the track and I dont know if I would race one at the track of course.

M3 has a custom exhaust and tune by a local tuner. Car handles and runs amazing.

The X-GSR can keep up, he was only down 4 cars. But I definitely had top-end.

Stock for stock, the M3 will beat the X in any drag or road course. Most recently, the M3 beat the X by about 4 seconds in a Mag I recently posted about. I believe a stock M3 is putting down an average of 330+WHP

The new M3 is an amazing machine. Stock for stock it us a much better car than the evo X albeit much more expensive.

But about the M3.. Would be an interesting race. I know my Evo is faster than one of my co-workers older M3. He just bought a Porsche 911 though and that IS faster than my Evo. Believe me I know first hand

The newer M3 - from a roll - I have no idea.

Stock vs. stock an E92 M3 will smoke an Evo (and, unless the driver totally sucks, the C63 will destroy it). But once mods are thrown in, then it gets fuzzy. So when are you two supposed to hit the track?
