my sentiments exactly. friend has a 98 dinan stage 3 M roadster. out of about 200 races, we have decided, it is dead even. with me having the upper hand on a roll on. nodding to him on the majority of the drag races. but to a stock , or even mild modded normal M3, has no chance against an ap2. ill just say, his M hauls ass out of the hole, with the dinan stuff. this is the same guy who has repeatedly spanked a CTS V caddy to 100 mph.
now if your talkin e46, ouch, thats a bit faster on the launch. anyways, laters dave
I know this is a little off topic... I just wanted to let you know though.. your avatar

I'm assuming that BMW is not a Euro E36 M3, but it's only a US E36 M3. Stock S2000 should run close with it.

Of course, if the M3 was the Euro-version (or the E46 M3), then that'd be another story ...

stupid video. It would be a lot closer if they both started out in there powerbands. The M3 had a good launch, they don't need to rev high to get going. The S didn't launch at all and that's why the M3 pulled so hard right off the bat. S has no torque to match the M's from a stop without launching the shit out of it.
Woulda coulda shoulda. Dont be a sore fanboi...

Drivers being equal, an E36 M3 (stock S50 or S52) and an S2K (AP1 or AP2) can go either way.

Neither car, however, was designed for the stoplight GT.

Enjoy what you have.

The M3 feels faster because of torque --> doesn't mean it's actually faster.
