Your pretty much ****ed unless you get a blower or turbo with alot of boost.

They have probably 150+hp on you stock. I believe depending on year the M3 and M coupes are 333hp.

This guy went to my school and was so envious of me so he took out a loan and went to a place and said i want somethinf that can beat a mustang and he got the M. hes a ***. But i just wanted to **** him off more.

If it is an M yer gonna need more than an SC to beat it. if it is a Z roadster an SC will let you whoop up on him.


This is the way to beat the roadster, Jack the Ripper style.

Go get a bunch of rainbow stickers and every time you see that piece of **** slap one on the bumper. Eventually the guy is gonna start feeling he drives a *** car and develop a complex about it.

Boost it by making sure one day that he overhears you talking to some car guys about how nationally funded automotive research poll showed the Homosexual demographic greatly favored smaller 2 seaters such as the Saturn Sky, Mazda Miata, and especially the BMW Roadsters

eventually he will be so sick of driving a queer steer that he finally sells the damn thing or comes out of the closet and start polishing poles in which case he must immediatly surrender his "Man Card" and the speed of his car no longer has any credibility or bearing to anybody except other homersexuals

how's that sound?

haha i like it. But about the car i cant rember the year but i know its a M and it has a 2.3 Inline 6 i know its around 230 250 hp no mods. Could a take it easy in a 8 with s/c or natural asperation

98-00 Z3 M Roadster - 240hp 236 ft/lbs

01-02 Z3 M Roadster - 325hp 262 ft/lbs

In either case you need a blower and if its an 01 up you need alot of boost.

Must have been a bunch of spoiled rich kids at your school man, our school has 4 V6 Stangs, 1 02 GT, and a trans am...everything else is either a ricer or some kind of hippy-wagon, oh or a lifted/muddy truck

Ya. I live in a really rich town. There was actually an article in the paper a couple years ago about kingwood highschool having over 20 bmws in the parking lot. But nah the kid that owns the 04 cobra is actually one of my best friends and hasnt wrecked the car once. He got the car with like 50 miles when it first came out. Comp orange cobra's are just plain hot.

Believe me he can drive, and you can't abuse a sports car. There made to go fast. Now doing donuts in your car and constant gunning is abuse, but you look like a moron when you just floor your car everywhere.
