Post Kill of my life!

I had a lot of respect for the M3 but times have changed.
A convertible 2004 EDM M3 stops behind me @ the lights last night and as I had a look in the mirror, I see 2 Lebanese pimped up to the max. My top was down, his top was closed. After the green light comes on, I put it in 1st, change the lines so the can pass me by and was wondering if they wanna play, since I just wanted to see how bad this car will murder me .He floors it immediately from the stop to show me that he is the king in a BMW M3 and since I was still in first doin

So basically this is what happened:

The guy in the M3 sux at driving a manual, and probably mis-shifted or forgot to shift.

The vert is 3800 lbs... w / the two passengers as stated, the vert is now a 4200lb car. The vert launched from a stop is still 13.2 to mid 13's if driven properly.

The Coupe is much faster... high 12's, low 13's under the right conditions.

Look at the trap speeds when measuring a vehicles power. M3 105-109 stock > NA mods 111 mph trap was just hit by Lee Rutter 12.48 111 mph.

Your NA setup I'll be willing to stretch it a bit and call it 98-101. No doubt w / the gears etc. you're quick up to 80 though.

Lastly anything can happen on the street. Good run

You're one of those people that get offended when you hear someone being called black instead of african american right?
