Default 01 Cobra or 01 BMW 330

I got this guy at work talking **** saying that his Automatic 01 BMW 330 will smoke my 2001 Cobra. I believe that his is completely stock and mine has Magnaflow exhaust and JLT intake with SCT Xcal2 tuner, but he doesn't know of my upgrades.

From Line? Dig?

buhahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I love how BMW drivers think they'll smoke anything on the road.


I make M3 drivers weep.

You've got him from start to finish. Especially a 330ci 200-something-hp inline 6. Hes snakefood.

Tell him you think it'll be close and tell him to bring his ATM card.....

they are snappy little cars, but unless you are a really crappy driver you will win by buslengths.

My room mate drives a '95 M3 (he know that my '99 cobra would smoke his m3) One day we just went out and messed aruond and see what this race show and i smoked his M3. Also his M3 is chipped intake and other goodies but i still walked away fromhim hardcore. Then we got back to the house and his car was miss firing like a mother... and now he finaly found the problem and it has bent valve(s) or something. One of his sparks plugs came out it was crunched crazy bad. Time for a new head rebuild!!!

BMW makes some hella nice cars but can't keep up with american power!

itallia....what m3 drivers do you make weep? If its the older ones, then yeah....but the newer ones are very quick.

We might be able to get them in a straight line, but we would get straight up smoked if it was any type of road race. I drove an '07335i (twin turbo I-6 with 300 hp) on a track a few weeks ago and there is absolutly no way in hell that my cobra would have been anywhere close to keeping up with it. It has about zero torque, but man, that thing was on rails.

On a side note, the M3 thats coming out next year will beabsolutly nuts. 420 hp V8 owns any NA Cobra.

True, true. However If I had the money to blow on an 07 335i I would much rather go with some serious F/I on the cobra. With a fairly stock motor (forged bottom end) P&P intake and heads and a d-1sc @20 psi your looking at 650-700rwhp. All this could be done for a little over 10k. BMW... pfffft But to be fair most of the BMWs that I have rode in(both of them)wre much more luxurious and had quieter ride than the cobra.

I've raced 3 99-03 M3's on the road. Stop light races and road races. Because my gearing isnt rediculously high I can still match them at higher speeds. I had no problem handing their cocky asses to them.
