2008 BMW M3 shredding its tires

too bad it has no torque

No torque? I would say kicking out the *** end whenever it wants means it has plenty of torque. MB and BMW motors are notorious for not having high Torque numbers but the performance of the motor speaks for iteself.

I like the looks overall but the acceleration doesn't seem to be any better then the older model. 0-60 in about 4.8s from what iv read. Oh well, at least you get the V8 sound out of it.

Is anyone else weirded out by the v8 change and a production bmw turbo engine? I never thought they would make a production turbo honestly. Kind of like the only radio station you listen to changing music styles. Not necessarily bad, but a strange change in the routine.

The new M3 is magnificent IMO. Given the competition i think it makes sense to move to a V8. The V8 also weighs less than the previous Inline six.



They will also soon release M DCT. which is a Dual Clutch paddle shift transmission.



Here's another real cool video - it looks sick in Alpine White.

Do you actually know how much torque this car has? 420 hp with only 295 lb/ft of torque. Kind of lopsided. No torque meaning that it should have at least 420 lb/ft. you should read about it more.
