We have modded NA 370Zs trapping better speeds and times than E92 M3s. So yes there is potential to win, but at best it'll be neck-and-neck if a race were to happen.

But the C63 AMG is a different story, especially the refreshed car with P31 performance option. Without FI, that'll walk any modded NA 370Z.

High 12s and about 4-5MPH slower. You two are running M6 numbers.

Here's a very well modded M3 on the left. Has AFE filter, Dinan Exhaust, X-Pipe, Active Pulley, Active ECU, with DCT transmission on 100 octane gas. Not much room for improvement since that '60 is spot on. And it's an auto.



No faster than our modded 370Zs - granted we need an extra mod or two to get there.

Yep. The 370Z modded is an absolute beast.

Whatever. It's all relative. Anything that does lower-12s is beastly to me. BMW M6, M5, LS3 Corvette. We're not exactly talking slow here.

12's under perfect conditions is very different than being a low 12 second car.

I don't understand. Jnaut and ZEliminator did not run their times under "perfect conditions" - they were able to consistently run mid-low 12s with their current setup. You make it seem like these kinds of times are flukes or something. Not sure why you're trying to discredit the car, exactly.

And it's not like I'm saying it's beastly in stock form. I'm specifically talking about a modded car like theirs.

Those look like lousy times for those mods.

There's a guy with a red e92 with the automatic trans that runs a little quicker (and a lot faster) at our track rentals. His averages were somewhere around ~12.3 @ 115+ with bolt ons and street tires (stock rims).

I don't think anything is beastly until it is in the 10s.

The M6... that is a pig. But damn it's a top end monster.
