BMW E46 M3 vs E36 M3 vs M2 Comp: DRAG RACE

.............................................................

Listen up BMW fanboys - you do NOT want to miss this!

We’ve brought together two classic M3s, and they’re going up an M2 Competition! Mat’s sat in the E46, which will put down 340hp & 365Nm thanks to a 3.2-litre straight-six under the bonnet. As for the E36, its 3-litre straight-six engine helps push it to 300hp (thanks in part to some modifications cameraman Jack's added) and 320Nm.

As for the M2 Competition, well it’s clearly the most powerful competitor here, with a 3-litre straight-six twin-turbo 410hp & 550Nm! But what do you think - will the lighter E36 have what it takes? Or will the M2’s pure power advantage lead it to victory? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

I love how the the M2 comp is playing the sound of the E46 in the interior speakers lol

The E46 M3 still holds up well today. It's a drivers car and still puts a smile on my face every time I drive mine. I don't have to be the fastest car on the road, but I know that there is something special about owning one and being able to enjoy every moment behind the steering wheel.

E46 still looks so good. What a shame where BMW is taking the current design across it's entire line.

Suggestion Day 10: Putting all the cars horsepower, torque and other specifications on one screen side by side so we can compare them easily

What i love about Carwow drag races is whether quarter mile times are in 10 seconds or in 13s, the enjoyment is always high

I was more hype for this race than the lambos and other hyper cars.
