Similar weight? you know the M3 weighs +- 300 lbs less right?


Camaro wont be able to hang with the M3 for 2 reasons. The M3 is faster in a straight line, and its faster through corners. 0-60 in 4.3 .

Honestly the Car is overpriced. Guys in 335i's with a chip will spank an M3 around a track all day long.
It will take more than a chip...I have a 335i...it's not that simple...drag strip yet, track no...335i still a bargain tho.

I am giving up mine to get the camaro...bottom line, I like to mess with my stuff, and I can't afford to break a BMW...a camaro, that's a different story. And although a 335i has huge potential, ultimately it will be no match for the LSX F-body...drag strip or track...too much aftermarket support.
