BMW M135i X-Drive vs BMW M3 Video
& Saw this on youtube, shocked to see a M3 losing. However I have some doubts: 1. Driver in the M3 must be really shit in driving 2. Is it really a M3, video kinda unclear. What do you guys think ?

Haha, I think Mr M3 was too busy txt'n his mate about how he's just about to show the M135i whose BMW's Daddy. As fantastic as the M135i is, I seriously doubt it would outgun an M3, BMW know this, hence why its been given a midway name tag.

There have been a few road tests that indicate the M3's advantage, if any, is pretty marginal. An M3 driver would need to have his act together to avoid embarrassment...and the M3 driver in the YouTube didn't!

I'll put money on the M3 didn't or wasn't in the right settings, M mode wise. Turn everything off and they just sit and smoke otherwise TC can be very intrusive and cut the power..... Off
Trust me, I know (I am also guessing the 3 is a manual, otherwise he would have smoked the 1.) |

Like I said in the S vs iX thread
While the M3 is grappling for traction, the iX is simply gone. This is why the iX is actually 0.2 seconds quicker 0 - 62 than the equivalent RWD version, despite an extra 70kg
There was very little on the road that could beat my E70 X5 in Sport mode over the first 200 hundred meters. |
