and won!!! :eek:
I'm unsure of the year, was the more boxier look, so I'd say a 95 or so. It was red, 4 door, 5 spd. I pulled up next to him on the intersection of Ken Caryl/Chatfield. Light turned green, he jumped out in front by a few lengths, by the time we hit about 80 we were more or less side by side. I think up to 100 I'd have passed him!
Good ole' STS

Well most car mags say the 97 STS will run low/mid 14's stock. I have an airbox mod, K&N filter, and glasspacks. So perhaps mine is a few tenths faster than stock.

Yea, I think the earlier M3's had 240, or 260 stock. Nothing compared to now.
There are probably some bitchy M3 owners out there now. Several months ago, I was behind an older one ('95-'96) at a light with two of my friends in the car. Light turned, and he went for it. I stayed right on him, when there was room, I changed lanes, floored it and rolled past him. We waved out the sunroof as he motored by! He was PISSED!
M3's killed by "grandpa cars" :)

The last body style did have 240hp stock. They may not be the fastest car, but damn they are nice. I would take one any day of the week. My car may be faster, but an M3 is a whole shit load nicer than a civic.;)

Donny's (M3RACER) M3 ran a 14.9 at Bandi w/intake and exhaust and then with a 100 shot he ran a 13.9.
