E92 M3 vs. E63

Jinxter · 03-11-2008, 02:00 PM

What do you guys think? I hate the 0-60 thing but my friend that just got word that I have the new E92 M3 challenged me to a race. He has the E63 SMG. Thinking in the next few weeks we will take our cars out to sears point for the 1/4 mile run. I will make sure to take video's

!Xoible · 03-11-2008, 02:13 PM

what??? he has a BMW M6 with SMG (E63) or did you want to say he has Mercedes E63 AMG?

MShift · 03-11-2008, 02:31 PM

Im pretty sure he meant the MB....

Oh and I think he's gonna smoke you.

Yeah it's gonna be an ugly beating. The only bright spot is that it's not an E55. If it was it would be even uglier beatdown.

murellus · 03-11-2008, 03:48 PM

isn't E63>E55?

ChrisFastM3 · 03-11-2008, 08:05 PM

^^^^^^^^^

strangely no...........

gbb357 · 03-11-2008, 10:29 PM

Not really a fair race, especially in a 1/4 mile. 420hp vs 507hp, not to mention the gargantuan torque advantage the E63 has. Regardless, it should be fun, so go for it. Let us know how it goes, see if you can video the run. Good luck and be safe, but most of all, have fun.

OzStriker · 03-11-2008, 10:57 PM

Why don't you do something interesting and race around corners?

MShift · 03-11-2008, 11:49 PM

Well yes, but the engine is in my opinion also an integral part of a car. Not just the suspension setup...

hakaida442 · 03-12-2008, 12:34 AM

Someone on the mb board just clocked a 11.95 run...bone stock E63. Good luck.

KonigsTiger · 03-12-2008, 01:03 AM

E63 is likely to blow you away!!! Torque is crazy, I have an E55 AMG and its faster than my E92 M3. Not too much faster though, so good luck!!! Now, if your talking a few chicans, you will blow him away then!!!! Let us know how it goes!!!

KonigsTiger · 03-12-2008, 01:04 AM

By the way, I'll be taking my E92 M3 up against a C63 AMG on Friday, will take pics and everything!!!

yep Wednesday nights. Still have about 700 miles before break in is done. Now it costs $20 for 4-7 depending on how many people show. More people less runs. But usally you get 2 free runs then you start the clocking.

i give up on BMW's beating new generation AMG's. just not gonna happen i guess.

Oh its all just for fun. The guy that owns the E63 is actually a Bimmer fan, hes had 2 e46 M3's and loves BMW's.

Yep, I love Bimmer's as well, but AMG have some great qualities!! A bit different than the great feel of the Bimmer's though.
