Can't really judge comparing these videos, since they would have been under 2 very different driving situations. But yeah, I wouldn't be suprised that the 335i would be faster than an E46 M3 in a straight line. But I still think the E46 M3 would be quicker around a track. Really should try to get these 2 cars in a side-by-side shootout. I'm more intersted to see how these 2 accelerate from a standstill and go around a corner. That would be more of a real-world test. (when was the last time anyone had a rolling start drag race from 200km/h?).

 

[MRsamdol]

some would say faster than any n/a M's guess that's why new M's are forced induction...

 

[soulfood]

Very true bro .. depends a lot also on who is behind the wheels ... and wht kind of a set-up each car has made ...

Mine is still stock (engine) but has the M-Tech bodykit, the akra and clubsport fitted and I can pegged behind the E46 like a magnet. Around the corners, the E92 is better as it is very nimble ..:top: ..

Datuk, i beg 2 differ. On a straight, yes . In d corners or on a track, no way can a stock 335 even with kws n upgraded arbs b faster than an m3e46 or e92.

You are not wrong there bro but like I hv said earlier, it all depends on who is behind the wheels :4: ..... moreover if one see the spec stock for stock ... the 335i is still much better, more so with its lighter body ...

E92 335i - N54B30 - 2979cc - 335bhp / 450Nm
E46 M3 - S54B32 - 3246cc - 338bhp / 365Nm

For the E46, thts the Eur version and if its the US spec is 333bhp / 355Nm ... unless u hv the E46 M3 GTR (Race version) than thats a whole lot of power for a small ride ... 438bhp / 479Nm.



Now how can I say our 335i is not better :4: ...

 

[Daniel E30]

Track is a different story alltogether. Street rempitting, 335, 135 would fair better than the m's. RX8 dun be so humble, you have makan a few M's along the way.... Jom TEST any bros with M's.....

I for one would pay 2 watch. Bear in mind datuk these m fellas arent normal drivers like some of d 335 fellas n they would have honed their driving skills either on d road or d track. My money still on an m3.

You guys are no angels either :24: ... my money will be on you :top: .... hehehehe ...

 

[Daniel E30]

RX* sudah booking M3 ka? Ok la, M is definitely an awesome piece of machinery, esp the manuals. But i guest driving techniques is as important in keeping the NA engine revs high for M3.

Errrr mr. Prez since when e92 335 comes with 335bhp stock standard?

 

[Daniel E30]

Aiya, must bench mark 335 with e92 M3. Not E46 M3. Benchmark E46 M3 with someones E46 ESS Supercharged unit......

 

[seewai]

:listen: ..dun tempt this guys bro .... they will come in force this 335i group ... :4: ...

Then let's go early setup booth collecting entry tickets

 

[Daniel E30]

U all know who this E46 ESS person is......cannot compare different generation beemers....no fun.

 

[dzuljazz2001]

Errrr mr. Prez since when e92 335 comes with 335bhp stock standard?

:listen: ...since 2010 bro .. the 2007 model Twin T comes with a 306bhp whilst mine the 2008-2009 model comes with 326bhp :4:....

2 very different cars.

E46 M3 is hard to launch (manual), needs a good driver. Torque is high up in the rev range.
E92 335i can be fast even with a average driver.

Stock vs stock from a standstill the E46 M3 would be faster with a good driver, but with a bad launch the E92 335i could win.
Around the track or twisties the E46 M3 will be faster.
