The BMW M3 is a luxury sedan equipped with a twin turbo 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine. In stock trim, it is capable of producing 473hp and 406 lb.-ft. of torque. A six-speed manual transmission is the only game in town for the M3.
In the other lane, the Porsche 911 Turbo S is a mid-engine powered coupe with a twin turbocharged 3.8-liter flat six-cylinder motor that can make 640hp and 590 lb.-ft. of torque.
Doesn’t seem like this will be much of a race, you say? Take into consideration that both these cars have undergone varying degrees of performance modification and tuning.
Shall we see what happens when the rubber meets the road?
