It does 0-60 in 5.4 sec. THis is the fastest time that Motor Trend could crank out from it. The M3 is head to head. I think that a modified M car(chip, exhaust, intake) can do the leap in around 5 flat. I think that you guys don't give the M enough credit. My buddy's 325 non vanos runs with Z28's, so an M can at least clean an SS. V8, 310 hp to the rear wheels, hahaha. I don't think so!!!!!
