a Carrera 4S on top of it ... Model year 1992?

If this did happen; here is what your score would be:

BMW Driver: 1 vs Porsche driver: <0 = Sucky driver.

Wow, your car is already fixed?

I read, that you hit the curb and your car was on the verge of being totaled!

The fact that your 330i beat a Carrera 4s notwithstanding, you still can't spell Porsche, or Boxster.

But unless it was an old Carrera or he's a bad driver, I call

dude, I love my car to death, but I know that it can't beat a Carrera 4S (unless the 4S was like the Flintstone car, i.e. no engine, powered by feet)

Porsche is 355hp 0-60 in 4.6, the BMW is 255hp 0-60 in high 5s I think? Right.

It would be interesting but I think the Porsche would still win since it would decimate the 335i on the launch. (AWD + lighter + way bigger rubber) Plus the Porsche will go 29 MPH faster at the top. Porsche is more aerodynamic I would assume but it also has more drivetrain loss.

So in other words, it would be an interesting race

335i should be able to run with Cayman S and Bosxter S (both 295bhp) , right?

He said it was from a 40mph start. That should giv the advantage to the 335i.
