Here's a first look at BMW's E92 M3 ALMS race car, which "bumps the power quotient of its high-revving 4.0L V8 from 414 to 485 ponies." Video after the break. Click here for first picture in gallery.
But with introduction of the E92 M3, BMW is free to race with a V8 unrestricted and announced their racing program in cooperation with Rahal Letterman Racing, as well as unveiling a new racecar at the Chicago Auto Show this year.[via Autoblog]
WebRidesTV pits "BMW's new M3 against a Dinan-tuned 335i coupe." Though it may seem equal, "you can't ignore the allure of the Dinan 335i's torque and lower curb weight." Video after the break.
The BMW 335i has proven itself as a credible player in the sports coupe segment, particularly with a tweaked ECU to extract maximum output from its twin-turbo'd 3.0-liter inline-six.[via Autoblog]
Inside Line pits the 2008 BMW M3 coupe against the 2008 Audi S5 coupe in this comparison test. Which vehicle comes out on top? Find out after the break. Click here for first picture in gallery. Here's the bottom line:
In terms of aural pleasure, we give the Audi a few points for its sexier exhaust note. But for sheer power, honors go to the BMW at both low and high rpm. Unlike the M5's V10 on which the M3's engine is based, this V8 shows no such want of torque and feels full-bodied and tractable at any rpm[via Edmunds]
In this clip, we get to see the difference between a fast (M3) and ultra fast (Veyron) car. Though it's quite obvious as to who wins, this race is an interesting watch nonetheless. Video after the jump.
Yet while the M3 is one of the most highly anticipated vehicles on the road, it doesn't even hold a candle to the quad-turbo, 16-cylinder, 1,001 HP Bugatti Veyron. The Veyron is a true supercar that costs a cool $1.4 million, hits 60 mph in less than three seconds, and has a limited production run of a few hundred copies[via Autoblog]
