Default 2002 M3!

dam guys, i was going about 70 on the freeway, saw a red 2002 M3 convertible with the top down, I went right next to him and started. we went all the way up to around 146 and shut it down. i was about 6-7 cars in back of him. i was pissed.. i guess its time to get me comptech.

Were you hitting your gears right? I'm just curious for future comparisons....

Nice try anyway - they ARE beasts...

Yeap, looks like you did all you could !!!

SC or Turbo should have definitely gotten the better of him... Good luck with the mods..

<shaking head> I ran one and I didn't gain an inch, he might have been pulling even - we didn't exactly start at the same time. They're pretty quick. Turbo, yes, SC, maybe - yet to be proven.
