In a clash of titans on the tarmac, the BMW M3 Touring, after a Manhart makeover, roars with 650 horsepower and a jaw-dropping 800 Nm of torque. Its opponent, the BMW M2, also tuned by the same wizards, packs a punch with 775 horsepower and 850 Nm of torque. The M3's all-wheel-drive system and weight advantage seemed to give it the upper hand in the quarter-mile sprint, clocking in at 11.1 seconds compared to the M2's 11.2 seconds. The M3's price tag of £126,000 versus the M2's more accessible starting price of £10,000 adds another layer of intrigue to this high-octane showdown.
As the race unfolded, the M3's dominance was further solidified in a rolling race, where its power and traction left the M2 in the dust. Even in a third-gear roll-on, the M3 showcased its relentless acceleration, leaving the M2 trailing behind. The M3's performance was consistently lauded throughout the races, with its tuning and engineering proving to be a winning combination. In a brake test from 160 km/h, the M3's stopping power and stability added another feather to its cap, showcasing its prowess beyond just straight-line speed.
The M3's growling engine, combined with its precise handling and formidable acceleration, painted a picture of automotive excellence. The M2, though a worthy contender, couldn't match the sheer ferocity and finesse of its bigger sibling. The Manhart touch on both machines elevated them to new heights, but in this duel of speed and power, the M3 emerged as the undisputed champion of the track.
