I've driven his old turbo'd S4, his v8 S4, and most recently his new TT 330i or something....

The newer Audi and the BMW were sweet cars, and I can remember thinking they were super quick *compared to the GT most things are of German descent*

He recently ordered a '13 version of the 330i I believe. Forgive me as I don't know that much about BMWs. He know's, as do I that my car is quicker in all aspects, but what are these cars supposed to run?

Mid 12's around 110? He said even his last one being AWD and having launch capabilities was retard proof.

I offered a spring time run, he declined.

I don't think they make a 330i, but when I looked up the 335i it said around 13.6 1/4 mile time.

The '07 and up 335i and especially the all wheel drive version are not to be taken lightly. Of course for the price of a new one you could buy 2 Mustangs.
I recall seeing this video about a year ago BMW VS 5.0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNnbcIN3p9A

Tune will put the 335i in the mid 12s.

What BB said. Juicebox tune or whatever it is gains them 70-80 RWHP iirc, along with the other benefits of a good tune (shift points, TM, etc).

Maybe he meant a 3 liter? The previous generation 3-series were all 3 liters in North America (325I, 330I, and then the 328I, 335I). The 335 have two small turbos, a bit underestimated hp numbers because they didn't want it to compete against the 4.0L V8 M3s.

The newer model (F30), the base 328I has a 2.0L Turbo, the 335I still has the 3.0L Turbo.

What I love about Bimmers, even today they still offer a manual transmission is almost every model they make.

He told me what it was, I just couldn't remember because they're all the same sounding.

His previous model was the TT 3 series, and he says he got the same thing, just newer.

Car looked bigger and slightly redesigned. Here's a picture of the one he looked at before ordering his own.
