that doesn't seem right. I've seen several M5/M6 vs M3 videos on youtube and the M3 gets completely annhilated by the bigger bros. maybe in 0-60 is achievable but up to 100 neck and neck doesn't seem right. but if it is true the e92 M3 with DCT will be a force to be reckoned with. I might have to lose few thousand on my S5.

All 3 are superb and continue to improve with performance, even as they gain weight.
In all honesty you can do 200mph with software (which eliminates the limiter), and pulleys / intakes.

Thing is everything is soooo expensive for the car. Software I THINK is like 3-4k.

Here is one with the full monty of mods (probably 20k of work approx), beating my friends murcielago

the 335i is really fast and feels like it. there is a lot of room for improvement and more speed. hell, the 135i will probably be faster and better brakes then the M3.........

The performance numbers of the E92 M3 surpasses the Street version E46 M3GTR. The M3 GTR was also stuffed with a V8 at a cost of $250,000.. What a bargain the E92 M3 will turn out to be.
