swamp, i'm quoting myself here because i'm not sure if you even saw this post (which btw is the last post on the first page). it's safe to say that this could only be the result of a discrepancy between the computer's performance model and the real thing. given that the car as tested by car and driver was a 6mt, it's safe to assume that the flaw in your simulation wasn't a shift time flaw. my intuitive thought on it, is perhaps bmw is even underrating the hp on the M3.
what are your thoughts on this discrepancy?
