335xi vs g35x

A lot of people were comparing the new G35 with the 335. I had a little anxious driver in a G35X ("sports") in the mood to push it with me. All I can say not bad at all, G35X impresses me. Even with a PROcede 1.47 the G35x pulled. Granted he was crazy and doing crazy speeds at one point on a very windy road with narrow lines between traffic in which it wasn't for me to speed rofl.

If it were highway hands down he would be pwned

but without a doubt the new G35 (series) is not a bad car, but BMW is way nicer rofl. It was nice though to first hand compare the cars in performance. The G35 handles roads pretty well from what I can tell.

I wont lie, it surprised me. We do know that our car with PROcede is faster on a TRUE line up and with V2, forget about it. I wouldn't knock the G35 though.

Weaving in and out of traffic and racing on a very windy road at that is first of all NOT SMART and not a real race!! Line up and go then you see who has the true power..........

^ If you see when it was no longer straight is when I stopped ;+) I'm not a youngin anymore, I know when to let a crazy driver go that and well I work 911 calls, I know the outcome of the maniacs but I was impressed watching him go his way and take those turns, but I thought to myself you punk if we only could line up.

Lots of racing has to do with courage, not power. A G35X isn't that fast.

Aren't the 2007 and ups 306HP these days? Thats pretty powerful. Thats not bad, we can tune it better.

Courage, indeed but I ain't going to go the wild. Worked to many car accidents in my few yrs.

Go over to edmunds.com and search for their 335 verus G37 (the 330hp version) and learn why peak horsepower means nothing.

Depending on the year they were 287hp and probably until they made the new model.

it was an 07, 306hp. We established it wasn't fair. I pulled on all str8 aways and than he blew by on a crazy road where he can go kill himself. Now lining up the 2 cars, hands down a 335 with PROcede would make it look like a man running past a baby lol

I want my V2 and see what trouble we can cause with it

Bro, what is the deal with you? There is countless write ups on the comparison of the 2 cars. Stock, the 335 destroys the g37, look at edmunds. With a procede anything it would be like racing a scion. You must not push the car, I dont mean on windy roads, but the g37 doesnt hold a candle to the 335. You must be parshal to jap cars.

You read posts, ever tried or seen it in real life. If you you READ my post I said I was impressed with the car it wasn't that bad. It wasn't like it was a race, I said I "push it with me" and when it got to a dangerous road I stopped. Because I'm not a maniac, worked to many car accidents like that. The point is people compared the car many times but here was it was hands on.

I do like jap cars, I've lived in Japan and own subarus, but I plan on buying a BMW for the years to come buddy.

And I know what a PROcede can do, I've ran a modded 04 E46 M3

Fun is in the twisties, not in a straight line. We all know the damage a Procede 335 may inflict to a G35 in a straight line, but this is not the case. A good driver with a 330hp car on a windy road can definitely hurt some people's egos.

my bad...it was a g35 (306hp)

However, the g37 is 250lbs. heavier than its predecessor meaning the extra weight overcame hp gains. Same performance basically.

really?

Let me see...Porsche 911 GT3...E92 M3...M5...M6...F430...LM640...all of them high-rev cars with a sky-high peak horsepower. Are you insinuating that they lack performance due to their high revving nature?

I dunno check your Procede last G35 I raced I murdeded him by about 4CL+ at least. Walked U filmed I'm sure it's posted somewhere bottom line it was so far back it hardly visble in th vid. I raced him because another member said he was beat by the same person and he had a Turbo Tuner I wonder makes certain cars faster or maybe it's a driver thing.

My PROcede works... I never raced the G35 so can't give you CLs, I did say we had some fun driving and than he got crazy on a dangerous road with thin yellow divider... >>"Granted he was crazy and doing crazy speeds at one point on a very windy road with narrow lines between traffic in which it wasn't for me to speed rofl."<<

the titles vs might seem like a race, should've changed the title, but was more comparing. I wish the 335 sedan had better stock suspension though.

the M3 I ran I had close to 4CLs on, so I knoooww what my PROcede/exhaust can do.

oh don't mind him, when he sees "procede" in a sentences it clouds his vision to see anything else ...

weaving in and out in traffic is fun in sub 200 hp cars, but this one is too that q35x and our cars are just too quick and dangerous to do just that.
