The number of E46 M3's with big power are increasing. As for the 11.6 thats impressive am sure with alot more work it would the 1/4mile times would be better.

Its a whole lot more useful than when you break the tires loose in 4th gear...unless you want to enter a drift contest....

If you have never had an M3 with over 270rwhp then how would you know?

Because I don't need a 1000hp Supra to know that the only thing it is good for is straight-line racing...

Is this what you tell yourself to keep happy with 270rwhp?

I don't need to walk Supras on the highway to keep myself happy...I obviously didn't buy an M3 to be the fastest thing out there...

You didnt buy it to be the slowest thing out there as well. Why not buy a lesser HP car with as much handling so you can maximize traction?
