    Race M3 Battle: 320bhp E30 vs 280bhp E90

    Read it here:

    Two touring cars, one track and 17 years between them - but just how different are they? PH finds out...


    Edit: E30 M3 vs 320si E90. My bad!

    I was rooting for the E30. I wonder what would happen if the E36 320si raced. That had the S42.

    and the M cars are a multiplier

    regular repair Money * 3 = M3
    regular repair Money * 5 = M5
    regular repair Money * 6 = M6

          While the E90 likely would have still posted better resuts (you can't argue with technical progress), I'd like to think the spread would have been closer with someone truely 'comfortable' in the E30. I mean, of course a driver that has been driving an E90 for the last season plus, and won a championship with it, is going to know how to get the best times out of that car. To then be thrown into a car that he has never driven is skewed.

                The true battle would be putting these two beasts at the starting grid each by side and let the fun begin and later judge which is faster in the circuit chosen.
