d-domi · 04-07-2008, 06:32 AM

M3 owners, its a realistic acceleration? What do you think about it?

Looks good to me. Should've changed the traction control setting for the launch to get going faster but otherwise seems to climb nice and fast.

Watching the vid and it shows the M3 taking 6seconds to 100km/h, 16seconds to 200km/m and 27seconds to 250km/h.

Good but not amazing in this class.

Nice find

Looks pretty realistic to me!!! I´ve never taken mine above 250, but it gets there in a very similar way to what I see on the vid.

Check out the pause in acceleration when changing gears, that would be largely gone with the DCT box

KonigsTiger · 04-07-2008, 12:34 PM

Yea I did notice those long pauses, that guy dosn't shift fast!! You can really do that much faster, but certainly not as fast a M-DKT!

Don't think the guy was pushing it to the limit!! As an example it seems he is throwing gears rather slowly and doesn't seem to be reving quite to the limit. Buy hey, 300 kph is a hell of a lot of speed which is what I think this guy was trying to show rather than 0 to whatever!!!
