95 Supercharged M3 Vs Mercedes AMG

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My first kill in the riced out 95BMW M3. Yes you heard correct “Riced”
Why? May you ask is my car “Riced”. Very simple the freaking exhaust is so loud.
After the fabulous job done by 325iSBimmer the car sounded great until 2000Rpm then it sounds so loud I feel like a 19 year old kid with a fart can for the exhaust. However I have spoken to 325iSBimmer and we are going to correct the problem with a couple of resonators.
Now back to the story. I’m driving my Riced out white 95 E36 M3 towards the highway, wondering if I will meet some that would indulge me in a friendly confrontation. I’m approaching the apex of the onramp to the highway. As I glance in my side view mirror, what’s this? One black 4 door Mercedes with pure white rims is approaching on my left side in the middle lane. My course of action was swift WOT, the Ricer exhaust whaling away as the mighty M3 lurches forward with authority. This ricer move has now placed me right behind the black Mercedes. I glance at the badge “AMG”. I’m wondering will this be my first kill or will I be killed in the riced out M3. I accelerate to place my self besides the AMG, before I knew it he does the ricer move he is on WOT. I indulge his request, I’m in 3rd gear 5000, 6000, 7000 shift he is at my side. As the tach climbs through the Rpm range all I can see is the rapidly disappearing AMG in my side view mirror. The ricer sound is now droned out by the Hoover sound of the supercharger. The M3 screaming with delight, 140, 150, 155, 160 Mph traffic approaching I shut her down.
I don’t know what type of AMG this was; all I know it was the earlier body style.

most likely not an AMG because AMGs don't come with "white" rims.

[coolcarlski]

AMG what?

Black car with white rims? kinda sick looking...

160MPH You must've been redlining in 5th, it takes a while to get up to that speed, even in a S/C M3. The fastest I've gone was about 142 and the speedo stops climbing quickly when you get to those speeds.

maybe he has a 6 speed? he's from canada...did the euro's from canada come with 6 speeds?

[hellrot Ofl]

Hmmmm...aftermarket rims maybe?

rims would help a little to get there but I dont think they would make a huge difference

Don't quote me on this but I believe it took about a good k or so, keep in mind I already was doing about 100Mph or close to it.

They looked like Alpina rims that style any ways. They were not Mercedes rims at all.

However whether or not it's AMG I could not tell you. I could stick the AMG logo on my M3.

I believe it was the mercedes_c_36_amg_1994

considering that, this sounds correct. A stock e36 m3 can take a c36 (though it's very close). Your supercharged car certainly has the upper hand, and would take the OLDER e55 as well. Mods?

$30,000 Canadian or $5 American in suspension and engine work.

Haha! our dollar ain't that bad!

Wait... never mind...

wha??

[Imperialduckm3]

You haven't met the C32 AMG yet, those are a monster or worse its half-bro E55 AMG..

I think he could hang with the C32...the E55, good night.

30 grand cdn being 23 american (into engine and suspension), it's very safe to assume that a c32 will be left behind, and for in-house reference, the e46 m3. I was referring to the old e55, which was making similiar power to the c32 with more weight, so it shouldn't stand a chance to an extensively modified sc'd e36 m3. How much whp are you putting down? If around the 400 range (guessing according to your generous investments), even the new e55 should be scared, as it makes around the same to the rear wheels (20% drivetrain loss, so 380-400whp?). if your sc is a cf unit, then the only advantage the new e55 has is instant boost from the pd blower, but the merc is MUCH heavier than your car.

[FrankW]

s/c-ed e36 M3 shouldn't have any problem with the C32 unless the C32's modded like Silvac32's EVOsport stage II.

[onefast944turbo]

Yeah most likely it was a c36 if it was an older body. I've driven a few and was about to buy one last summer, its a very nice Benz that you can get for a good price. I remember this was one of the first amg's i ever driven and it was very nice, classy and very clean looking with the amg rims and the Carbon Fiber detail. This was the first automatic when i got on it it spun 3rd gear. I never had a chance to really get on it at higher speeds but i'm sure they can handle themselves up there..

Stck E55 469 hp @ 6,100 rpm
torque. .
516 lb-ft. @ 2,650 - 4,500 rpm What are you crazee! TQ TQ TQ! They run mid to low 12's stck regardless of weight. I doubt if his car is making 400 to the wheels S/C which you are assuming.Turbocharged then we are talking a totally different story!
