155 top speed limited and they do the 1/4 mile in mid 12 seconds which is the same as my mates 393bhp 4x4 saff so if you think that aint quick for a car straight outa the box you must be mad, especialy when you need a 400bhp 4x4 saff to match it down the 1/4 mile
they aren't as quick as that mate. i'm talking about normal M3's, not the CSL.

they can manage mid 5 second 0-60's, mid 13's on the 1/4 mile. a stage 3 S13 200SX (300bhp) will be able to match those times. hence, why i said their torque figure doesn't match their bhp figure.

i'm not saying they are not fast, simply they aren't as quick as you'd think for the power they have.
