BMW Haters

[netercol]

And so we conclude, once again, the ///M3 is the benchmark in every aspect

love it or hate it, you just cannot get away from the above..

SKYF, bring your RunX RSi with mods and i will show you how a 320i will klap it!!! i promise, you, PK of note, but i have to chow a beans bunny first cause i need to get some :rollsmile:

in the interest of fairness i used killas app to do a graph his app is very accurate from comparisons the i have done... the blue line is the Rxi it clearly has the advantage with top end...

 

[pain68]

thats a cool app :thumbs:

Modded vs stock comparos are retarded.... no offense. Its like comparing a woman with a face lift, makeup, and breast implants....to an all natural woman and putting them in the same contest (makes no sense).

 

[SKYF]

@muney you right but when i stated my mods people still thought i was talkind crap.
obviously stock fr stock the 330 should give the runx,but in my case i took the win.
But im just stating it as it is, believe me or not

 

[novio]

dunno about that graph.....

stock, the 330 should be doing almost a full second less to get to 100.

 

[moranor@axis]

no calculator will be 100% accurate... but this graph does show that they are very closely matched... so SKYFs story is very believable considering he probably knew his car better than the others ect...

 

[SKYF]

Thanks moranor atleast you have a level head.
i drive a bmw as well (135i) and it aint the fastest car around, guys need to start realising bmw and not always the fastest

 

[novio]

im not saying they are. every test/graph/driver will produce different results. i was merely commenting on the chart posted. and a 1 second difference is huge.....performance wise.

im sure many toyotas out there are awesome pullers. a 1.8 that matches the 330 is obviously impressive......but silly to be compared....why?

because any tom dick n harry can go slap on a crap tonne of mods on something and equal the performance of something else.

even a fiat uno could be made to do the 1/4 mile in the same time a lambo does. can they fairly be compared? I dont think so.

 

[moranor@axis]

the calculator is stingy, but still very useful when for comparing cars... remember the rxi time will also be affected by the stinginess...

i look at these the same way i look at dyno graphs... they just a vague representation of performance, but can tell you alot about a car...

 

[novio]

international awards can also tell a lot about a car:rollsmile:

toyota does pretty well in that section i believe. not sure its specific to the rxi but they do generally make good engines.
