The best result for the E92 M3 I've seen from a magazine is 115 (link to large M3 performance "database" here). I think the new car (assuming current best knowledge of power and weight and of course some underrating) should be in the 117-119 range. In short, as I posted earlier, based both on power to weight and physics based simulation results, I believe the new M4 will be very close to the 991S in a straight line. It will definitely be harder to launch and launch consistently though due to the favorable weight bias in the Porsche. |
Don't you come in here with that logical stuff!
