09 m3?
So, I was challenged by a guy that works with a girl that I know. Supposedly he has a bone stock M3, that she thinks is a 09 model. Without knowing my mods, he has already asked, overconfidently I might add, that we both throw down $1,000 and race...winner takes all. I looked up some numbers on the car..but I'm looking for real life experiences/opinions, before I throw in that kind of cash.
My mods are in sig.

if your ballin like that, do it. if you run him from a dig you should be able to yank him pretty hard, but he will most likely catch you in the top end...say 120+. those are top end monsters.
but then again, anything can happen on the street.
id go get a nitrous kit, not tellem, blow his doors and collect some money.

you have longtubes and a tune basically? do you have a good tire? even from a dig you have you hands full with your mods.
i think you would be very surprised by that m3 (if he can drive).
wrong forum, too... this thread will probably get moved.

I get a lot of BS called But, I raced a 2009 M3 two door auto probably, and i pulled on him ever so slightly to 120 starting from 65 or so. I have full exhaust, lid, and slight tune (added some fuel and air is all). So I would say depends on driver and so on. I also pulled a stock vert cobra when i had a lid and catback is all...so who knows.
seems like they can trap from 110 to 115 haha

I guess I should have listed my mods than relying on my sig.
LID, Ported TB, LTs, catback, drag radials (hook really well on the streets). I also have a great tune. Never took it to the track. Closest comparison to this car I can give, is that Ive beat a late 90s (?) M5 on numerous runs. I know they weight a bit more though.
I was also thinking about buying a kit real quick, spraying it, and collecting the cash.

Sorry man I had the op's car in my head I'm not trying to call you out either, it's just that with equal drivers and conditions the Cobra should come out on top. But we all know things don't always happen as they should. Again to the OP don't put that kind of money up unless you plan to spray on him.

Thanks for the imput guys. I just found out that it may not even be an 09...but an older model. It's for a rich kid, and his father bought him the car. Keep you guys posted.
