I dont, there are LOADS of two wheel drive cars that would piss a tuned GTi off the line.... think RWD for a start
or if it had to be FWD then I bet a Clio Cup would be ever so slightly in front of you by 2nd gear....

wtf, r u all so thick, a great heap of metal with a whacking great v8 in it. all going through the rear wheels of course my gti would beat it off the mark, the rear end would just light up on the m3, then it'd eat me in 2nd and 3rd etc

M3's don't have V8's they have straight 6's

fcukin great stuff! absolutely great!
Ive been in a tuned 106, they are nippy, just nippy!
They are NOT the fastest car in the world!
An M3 can hit around about 45(ish) in first gear, by which time the little pug would be squeeling like a biatch, and out of puff!
Even a highly tuned pug on TB's or similar would have trouble staying with a 300+bhp BMW

brake horse power means nothing off the line, saying it has 300+bhp just reinforces the fact that its going to spin up and lose traction, and 45 in first? yes when it eventually gets going have ne of u actually gone up a 1/4 mile?

I think what Steve means is jumping off the line from 0 to say 10-15 mph which I can believe would be very close to a tuned GTi on small rims. Obviously after 15-20mph the more powerful car will win
