.Re: 1M Akrapovic
the E92/3 is the same BHP as mine, but with 100lb/ft less torque, and 300kg (cabrio) 100kg (coupe) heavier, so id suggest off the line and rolling the slk would be quicker (well i know it is, from deal world situations), the book figure for the cabrio (the fair comparison to mine) is 5.1 seconds i think, which is half a second slower, and the SLK is known to be much quicker than the 4.6 to 62 than the book figure, its closer to 4.1/2. I have pulled away from many an M3 who's tried it on.
The new new M3 is quicker than the E92 though, so it might be more of a fair match, i'll report back.
around the ring i wouldn't know, the slk is not a track weapon, i know that, but i rule the roads.
and no, I'm talking about all M3s, the AMG is a very deep sound, much nicer IMO.
is that right?

No need. I have the biggest. That's why I'm cool with driving a qashqai not a Mblah blah or an AMG.

Re: 1M Akrapovic
Yes.
Only a clown would buy the E93, so lets discount the Carbrio figures all together. The E92 M3 is 30kg lighter than the SLK...Not sure where you're getting your stats from also I'm certain you're carrying extra ballast over most. And the 0-62 and 0-100 on paper is quicker on every site I could find. In the real world I doubt there is much in it, but the SLK is not a drivers focused car like the M3. (I know, I own a new SLK as well, and I like it a lot)
I also like the AMG noise. But the M3 noise is in no way tinny, watch my video on the previous page.
Now Schhhh.

All you children with your Walnut Whips.
So cute
dont forget how many decibels they can make....which, to be clear, are all far less than any given GM V8

Re: 1M Akrapovic
I did lol at extra ballast! Not sure why people always have such a go at Dave, I find him funny. He plays on something that CS itself brought up, that he's baller, instead of fighting it he just plays with it. Laugh a little.

The stench of 'faux baller' in here is nauseating.

I think the guy seriously thinks he is 'baller' though. Going of his last post anyway.

Re: 1M Akrapovic
Anyway, taking the coupe figures into account then, the site I was looking at had it heavier, but you're right, they're pretty much the same weight, the 0-62 book figure for both cars is 4.6s
So with them being the same weight, and the same bhp, when rolling I'd have thought 30% more torque would make a decent amount of difference.
Like I said, I wasn't disputing it's track prowess, but my track days are over now.
my opinion of the noise is that it's tinny, this is from making comparisons when both are gunning it.
the only thing I've ever come across that's been able to out accelerate me was a modded GTR, never has an M3 managed it.
Of course you're going to discount the cabrio, as it weakens your argument, but comparing apples for apples, mine is a convertible so I chose the m3 convertible to compare.

Re: 1M Akrapovic
Oh and doesn't your engine noise have to come boosted through the stereo because it's so quiet?
I know you're fishing, and I'm going to bite, but didn't you buy (sorry rent) the slower, over 5 seconds to 62, cheaper, manual M135i?That's no quicker than my M-Lite shopping car
All show, no go iirc.

Some people just take the internet too seriously, I have a laugh, the ballast joke was quite funny, I'll give him that.

Re: 1M Akrapovic
I did yeah, £8k for 2 years use of a brand new M135i, bargaintastic!! I don't try & proclaim it to be anything other than a cheap to run daily though, its ok, gets me 6 miles to work & back, down to the shops, etc. The engine noise im also fine with, quiet for most of the time, a little louder when i want it to be, i have a girlfriend if i want my ears to be filled with noise.
