335i V3 vs. F430 Spider [The Unexpected]

seven_227 · 08-03-2008, 06:23 PM

335i V3 (driver only), F430 Spider (driver + passenger), F430 in race mode.

We raced from 60 mph - 160 mph, 5 races same results.

Note: It's not clear in the video which car is which but I'll leave it up to you guys to judge depending on how well you know your 335i exhaust note

so what about the start and the end?

why film just the part of you zooming by....

lawdude · 08-03-2008, 06:34 PM

Looks like you gotchyer ass kicked.

seven_227 · 08-03-2008, 06:35 PM

That was the end, you can hear the lift of after passing by, I couldn't rec and drive and the guys in the ferrari were not filming, my friend was waiting at the finish line.

HINT: 335i white, F430 red, try pausing the video.

Sorry about the crappy quality.

GAaaAR · 08-03-2008, 06:37 PM

I'm not sure who won. But to win or lose by half a second to a F430 from 60mph to 160mph is pretty good.

Wow then you won. Can you tell me what else do you have besides V3? Are you on RFT?

seven_227 · 08-03-2008, 06:41 PM

Looks like no one was able to recognize a 335i passing by from its exhaust note.

So you sitll have your secondary cats?

longodj · 08-03-2008, 06:49 PM

lol exhaust wise it sounds like the 335 won but they both look black...

TiAg335i · 08-03-2008, 06:51 PM

Wow, it's obvious the 335i won just from the sound of it...surprised none of you could figure that out.

yeah he won but is it legit?

there is no video of the roll

Clem · 08-03-2008, 09:52 PM

To me it looks like blur vs. blur and the blur wins.

HAHAHA Oh man! Looks like you kilt n' F430! You have your $hit set up right!

OpenFlash · 08-03-2008, 10:09 PM

Good results! Can't say that the results were unexpected. My 335 (V3, full exhaust and dual intakes) is quicker than my mildly tuned Gallardo which is slightly quicker than a 430 Spyder. Who would have thought that these little 3-series would become so fast, so quickly!

5soko · 08-03-2008, 10:14 PM

that sounds like a full modded 335i, what octane you running. that setup sounds really promising and fast! the exhaust note is the lovely sound of the N54 out in front

darkphantom · 08-03-2008, 10:18 PM

damn son....ridonkulous!

hmm...I need to see this race from a dig...that would be even more crazy!

congrats

WilyB · 08-03-2008, 10:27 PM

I am not surprised. I just had my 335 dynoed at the local Ferrari shop (3 factory certified master technicians) and at 385 hp it almost equals a 360 and at 460 lb/ft it beats the crap out of most Ferraris...

With your mods, I have every reason to believe you would be ahead.

I didn't think it would've been that much of a difference, happy with the results, the F430's driver wasn't though lol, he went on how it's still a Ferrari and he would take it over any BMW any day, told him that I'll burn my car if I was offered a Ferrari any day lol.
