Maybe, they are auto cars and you didnt really get to run up high. I would still think that E55 should pull you from 20-70 though

BusyLivin is infamous around these parts
20-70 is hardly a race.

M3's pull just as hard up top on the highway as comparable NA Porsches, they are not by any means low end cars! BTW I am almost positive the gears on M3 I swapped out were 3.46 not 3.6 !

that's what i thought. i have a supercharged S55 and it should be faster than my 4S. i think the tranny on his car probably downshifted first and that's why we were neck to neck. that 1-2seconds gave me a lead

i probably would have been toast after 70mph.. haha
