[bike/car] Spoiled.
I just test drove a 1997 BMW M3 (E36), a car that is well known to be awesome all over the place.
It was great fun.
Compared to my Blackbird, its power to weight ratio feels pitiful.
Anybody know anybody selling an E46 (2001+) M3 in black or dark blue with a manual transmission?
Yup, the Blackbird has 4.4x the power to weight ratio of the E36 M3.
E36 M3: 240hp 3170lbs = 0.0757 hp/lb
Blackbird: 164hp 494lbs = 0.3319 hp/lb
