M3 1/4 13.7

SLK 1/4 13.2

M3 drivers always lie about their mods.

Or the AMG guy needs to learn to race with AC off and in speedshift mode.

Read the comments dude.

This M3 has software and the 4.1 diff, so it's a bit quicker than stock. Also, it's a Euro M3 which is faster than US M3, due to not having a set of cats in the headers.

Last but not least, the SLK55 has a 100kg passenger.

A Euro M3 and SLK55 should run pretty close in stock form with a good driver in each.

13.7? LOL.

We do that up here at 5500ft altitude, stock. We don't have slow US spec M3s.

@SoulBladeZA 13.7? that's not true, 13.1 - 13.2 is the time of a stock US spec e46 M3, pretty much the same times as the Euro spec.. soo I think there is no reason you call them "slow US spec M3s"

@angelm3e36

We live in Johannesburg, 5500ft/1700m above sea level, that makes a massive difference in power.

I can't believe what I just saw!! I'm waiting for delivery of an SLK55 having recently sold my gorgeous E46 M3. This video has depressed me....

Don't worry too much about it.

I love M3's but that car had to be modded to beat the SLK55. M3's are quick but the SLK is FAST!

[mikul88]

Sport mode doesn't add any more horsepower than comfort mode, it just holds the rev higher before shifting and it starts at 1st gear from a stop.even with that said, the slk driver must either have a 350 or must have really worn tires cause the slk is rated at 4.3 and e46 is 4.8 (0-60)

[TD4f22]

@bimmerboy108 of course it is moded..with the price of the slk u can do a lot of things to the engine!

[miksirikoitsen]

any more vids etc. of the M3? Where did he get the 4.11 diff?

[laro901]

@SoulBladeZA m3 is stock?

[ukraina69sumy]

@bimmerboy108 yeah maybe he is faster in drag race, just set both cars on a race track you will see the M3 will finish as first

[theguythatcould]

@boristwotimes slk 55 is actually 12.7 in 1/4 mile

[TheGiorgi1995]

slk must win the race. guy on slk is probably beginner, but slk vs m3 mercedes must be winner!
