96 mystic cobra vs. e46 new m3

well, yesterday was a good day, nothing but rice at the race scene until i spotted a m3 then my boy in the cobra didnt do anything but rev at him, so i jump out and start bull$hiting with him and ask him if he wants to run a cobra, they immediatly think im trying to scheme them until i said just for s+g's (cobra has short ram intake, and x-pipe) so he said he needed gas we follow and at the gas station we made a wager for just 20 beans (gas money) and headed off to the 25 light... well we line up and im taping, when the light turns green the m3 squatted and booked, and got about 1.5 cars before we hooked, and basically put about 3-5 cars to 135mph, this was repeated 2 more times, until i told my friend to stop being an idiot and go from a roll (still has the original tires on the car from the factory).. we line up @ 55mph and go on 3.... wasnt really fair because the m3 had the inside lane around the turn but to say the least i am NOT impressed with those cars at all, i heard that thing SCREAMMIN @ 8K and by 110-120 our hood was at his rear fender if he pulled in our lane he would hit us ... i was very suprised with the cobra though cause i never really was partial to its topend (especially with stock gears), but i was suprised to say the least, then we bull$hited for a bit, the guys were mad cool, i told them about my car, and he said hell be back when i get it up and running.. hehe i think itll be a good match from a stop... those ****ers squat and hook HARD....

M3s arent exactly 1/4 mile cars.. They are quick and all but their light comes from the way the car handles. BMWs suspension feels so sweet! Not to mention the fit and finish is superb.

Nice kill for your bud though.

2001 M3 Specs:
Weight: 3781 lbs
Base Number of Cylinders: 6
Base Engine Size: 3.2 liters
Base Engine Type: Inline 6
Horsepower: 333 hp
Max Horsepower: 7900 rpm
Torque: 262 ft-lbs.
Max Torque: 4900 rpm
Drive Type: RWD

Now an M5 is a little different story..
Base Number of Cylinders: 8
Base Engine Size: 4.9 liters
Base Engine Type: V8
Horsepower: 394 hp
Max Horsepower: 6600 rpm
Torque: 368 ft-lbs.
Max Torque: 3800 rpm
Drive Type: RWD
Weight: 4024 lbs
