I saw this awhile ago. This should be interesting for others on this board not familiar with Dinan to watch. I was surprised by the 1/4 mile race. They don't mention which tuning setup Dinan uses. They have 3 stages now and are working up another one down the road. The M3 still looks sweet with the CF roof and wheels.

yea, there is a juicebox that has that record but the secondary mods are what helps the car out I am sure. I saw some car putting close to 400 down to the wheel with Downpipes, Cold air intake, chip, full exhaust system and a few other things.

yeah 400 is really not that difficult. You can also get Diverter Valves, and after market intercooler, blow off valve, and LSD. All in all the 335 is a very very modifyable car. Almost too modifyable for a luxury car.

Ya might want to avoid that particular mod, as more than once have they been responsible for repair bills exceeding $20k. If you're willing to take the risk of ponying up that much for a repair, might as well spend half that up front and just get the M3.

Lame video but impressive performance from Dinan for the $.
$56K for all that is pretty amazing.

i'll take the car that has more freude am fahren. I've never been in a Dinan 335i so I can't say much and I hate to be a magazine racer but seems like the Dinan's more about the raw power whereas the M3 is more about the refinement.
...wait, did that guy just say the true test to evaluate a sports car is at the race track (1/4 mile)? are you kidding me? lmao.
the badge isn't worth the extra dough? it's not the badge but the refinements!!
