From their web site, so its close but not quite there I guess. The 255 from 270 lb-ft is what bothers me the most. We will all just have to wait and see, and then take one to a dyno(mine will be going)... Granted its also 1st run data, so it could go back up to 339. Who knows, I just hate waiting... :("At its heart, an M-designed 3.2-liter, twin-cam, 24-valve, naturally aspirated, six-cylinder engine producing a pulse-pounding 330 horsepower* and road-conquering 255 foot-pounds of torque.*Mated to a six-speed manual transmission, that's enough
motivation to launch the new M3 coupe from standstill to 60 miles per hour in merely 5.2 seconds.** Of course, there's superb Mhandling and braking to match."
