i raced my friend in his stock 1999 m coupe and we were dead even from 2nd - 4th gears. i started to pull on him after 5th. there is no way the guy had 400 hp... he wouldve left u in the dust even if he really really sucks at driving. the s54 engine pushes 315 hp and is a relatively light car for it's size, about 3100 lbs. that is 200 lbs less than a 350z. the z is pretty quick, but there isnt a chance it would be able to stay with a car that quick. the gearing for the m's are higher meaning quicker acceleration. i think they only get up to about ~145 for top speed from the 5 spd.

I know the difference between a M Coupe, M Convertable, Z3 (used to own one), M3 M5....but I have seen MANY people on car forms confused even simple differences between a V6 and V8 Mustangs when they claim kills.....that is why I asked.

Soy de Carolina, pero estudio en Mayaguez, quizas por eso no he visto tu carro. LLevo un tiempo en el foro, espero tener mi Z a principios del proximo año.
Ustedes corren en la pista de Carolina?
