wtf is up with C&D now-a-days? I haven't renewed my subscription to them for a reason and this is only making hate the magazine more. The editors/drivers are implying (or basically just saying) that the M3 is better than the cars in this in comparo...

You wrote "in C&D, every single test that features the M3, the M3 wins first place."

And I pointed out that you were wrong. What's the issue here?

Did you possibly mean to say "the current M3?"

Maybe I'm missing something - in the video they say that without the launch control they might have been able to shave a tenth or two or so off the time. Nothing mentioned about the trap speed. Or did I miss something?

why would you assume i am not talking specifically about the current M3? no one says "the current GTR" or "the current corvette."

you shouldnt quote out of context.
