F80 M3 VBOX Acceleration Results: 4.2s 0-100kmh / 0-62mph
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com VBOX Data is in, Finally. The weather was still not optimal. I tried going to an area outside the city, but it was still hot. The temperature was still 27 degrees Celsius. I had no passengers in the car this time, but the road was not very sticky, but what to do. There was also a slight bend in the road at the end. I did launch couple of times and kept on getting 4.2 seconds to 100km/h (0-62 MPH). I didnt use the 1 foot roll out feature in the Performance Box. Here is the video of the run: Exhaust noise from outside: The data is as follows: Last edited by uae247; 05-11-2014 at 03:42 PM.. |

0-1000m in 22.0s @ 246km/h. Thats pretty close to the factory quoted 21,9s time. 1/4 mile in 12,2 with a 191,5km/h trap speed. Thats 120MPH trap speed!!!! Stock M5's trap around 120-122MPH AFAIK. Don't remember the other comparable M5 times at the moment (like 0-200 or 0-250) but it seems like you are pretty close!!! BTW: Noticed that it didn't shortshift from 1st to 2nd on this run. It revved all the way to 7000rpm before shifting up (still 600rpm before the redline, but not at 6000rpm as in your last video. More traction perhaps?) EDIT: BMW M5 (non CP) does 0-200 in 13,0s - The M3 did a 13,4s... http://www.autobild.de/artikel/bmw-m...t-4175597.html BMW M5 CP does 0-200 in 12,3s http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/v...72.html?show=3 Last edited by Boss330; 05-11-2014 at 03:51 PM.. |

Thanks OP, great post as usual
Others with more knowledge on numbers will chime in and this data will be debated a lot for sure. All I can say that, given that your conditions were a bit less than ideal, these look expected level of performance and in confirmity with BMW advertised numbers. However, I now doubt that real world numbers of the new M3 will be 'greatly' better/faster/lower than manufacturer data. My bet the engine dynos will also show a relatively less 'underrated' engine power and tq vs advertised data, not following the previous turbo engines of BMW. I think this is 'really' around 4.0 sec to 100 km/h car at its best and engine produces very similar to what they told us already. So, a bit different than 1M or F10 M5/M6 which were clearly underrated, probably to guarantee advertisement of a large delta of performance as much as possible vs E9X M3s in order to overcome the controversial fact of passing from a NA V8 to a TT in-line six.

The thing I like is that it was repeatable and easy to get.
Just M1 (which I set on DSC off and S3) then brake, accel and GO! BTW I think with more traction, the car can go faster since you can increase the RPM accordingly. It is just a matter of finding the right road for all of this. |

Most use a one foot roll out which will give you a better time. There was some wheel spin to. With the 1 ft roll out, you might have hit 3.9. The 1/4 mile at 12.2 @ 118 mph is pretty awesome and probably bang on if you take into account not using the roll out and the 2 meters more needed for a 1/4 mile. I think with less wheel spin an 11.9 is doable.
You can also play around with short shifting at about 6200 after 2nd gear as others have recommended. You're a champ. Thanks!!!

Usually trap speed is the best indicator of HP. But over 500hp seems a bit high... |
