akakracker22 is an unknown quantity at this point
I'm 15 and on ebay I was looking at some M3 Roadster's. I know I probably wont get one because of costs.. but what does a 99-00 M3 Roadster run 0-60? 1/4 mile? Also what is the average 60Ft? Last question... what are some pro's and con's?

Sorry for all the questions...

i think by 60ft he means braking...? I know the newer m roadsters broke from 60 to 0 in 2.4 seconds, if that gives you an idea.....keep in mind 2000 and older had the 240hp E36 M3 engine, while 2001+ had the E46 M3 engine, but with 18 less horespower due to exhaust construction to fit on the ///m roadster, as well as a lowered redline...still makes 315hp......0-60 i would expect to be lower then cam stated....probaly around 5 flat....the highest it could do with a pro driver would be around 5.4, because the z3 3.0 did 0-60 in 5.9.....and the new z4 3.0 does 0-60 in 5.5
