US M3 0-60 and 1/4 mile times (archive)

I'm considering getting one of these car. I was hesitant before because I had been told that parts are fairly expensive.Anyway, I now discovered my local engine importer had the the whole engine/tranny/ecu pakage for only $1500 so I'm not that concerned about future engine/tranny replacement cost.

Anyway I would like to know what the US hp rating is on these cars and what 1/4 mile times to expect and also the 0-60 times.
Also, do anyone know the hp rating of the japanese engines?
