That's the deal with these. The engine needs to be warm and you need to keep it in the revs.
Yep, I generally use my bike to commute the 2 miles to work as it's really grumpy (engine and gearbox) when cold, needs to be given some regular beans.Welshbeef said:
The bh/tonne of the E36 M3 Evo is near identical to the E46 M3!....
The E46 M3 "only" does 0-100mph in 11.5 seconds so 0.5 seconds quicker possibly all down to grip.
You brought back a year-old thread just to say this?!The E46 M3 "only" does 0-100mph in 11.5 seconds so 0.5 seconds quicker possibly all down to grip.
It did give carreauchompeur an excuse to post that bloody gorgeous photo again, though.

Even when new i dont think they were *that* fast in a 0-60 dash.
My 1983 cherry will do it in 6.3 seconds and thats a car thats atleast 10 years older.
Yes, but the inside still smells like burnt vomit.My 1983 cherry will do it in 6.3 seconds and thats a car thats atleast 10 years older.

Which old 1983 Cherry will do 0-60 in 6.3?
They did do a Cherry Turbo but according to this, it did it in 8.2. I dare say aftermarket kit might improve it but it's still only a 1.5.http://www.carfolio.com/specifications/models/car/...

Just been reading through some of the original posts on this from owners back in 2012 - a few people saying "Love my m3; wont be replacing it with anything" now, according to their garages, have
Still have mine. Last May I had a complete glass out - bumpers off restro done on it. This year was the application of Paintshield to stop the dreaded stone chips, new steering wheel, quick shift gear linkage and soon its going to have a complete poly bush set up done.I still stand by what I've previously said. It'll never be for sale.
