Thanks, I guessing since mine is an automatic that the top speed is around 100mph.

Hummmm I wonder if a 330hp '99 M3 engine will fit...and where to get one....


I have got to believe that your car will go faster than 100 MPH even if it is an automatic. Unless you have a wore out engine I would think the car would do at least 120 MPH and maybe even better. What is your RPM at 80 MPH on the tach?


Hummm I havent been able to get it up to 80mph....yet...I'm still driving on a permit w/ my parents in the car. The fastest I've had it up to is 75mph on the highway and the Tach was probably somewhere between 4-6 (I know it idles at 800rpms, but it seems a little rough at that)
The engine has 166k on it and hasn't been rebuilt or has major internal work done, and the Trans. hasnt been either
