* 1996-9 240 HP M3 E36 coupe 5 speed US is 5.7 seconds to 60 with a good driver. US 330ci 5 speed is 5.8 with a good driver. Although being peppier and lighter, the M3 pulls away from it. The 95 M3 (my car) is about 5.9 to 60, but due to its 3175lb weight it has the start and stays infront. When racing agenst a 330ci preformance package, which i have not done, i could definitly loose. I have heard its around 5.5 to 60. 330ci Preformance also tops out higher at above 160 w/o the govonor. Mine (95) stock runs about 150mph.
Do you really think so? I have a 330ci ZHP, and i was wondering how it would do against an E36 M3. So far the only cars ive raced are g35 coupes, whom i lost to, and a bunch of 330's + 325's. I've raced a 330i ZHP and lost to it even though he had close no tread on his tire (he was a much better shifter). I haven't acually gotten to gtech my car, but im probably going to try and get it some time this week, if i do, i'll let you know what the 0-60 is. Also, i've been able to top out the governor at 155, and it did feel like i had plenty more RPMs to climb even at that speed. Im sure without a governor i can go past 160 though the tach wouldnt say it.
