well yesterday me and my friends where cruising his car is an e46 330i he has 18" alpine replica wheels and two subs in the back plus 3 passengers , while myself i have 17" lightweight rims and no passengers plus no spare and no cat straight pipe plus custom exhaust and cold air intake. mine is euro spec so removing the cataltic did do wonders for the car no check engine , we tried a race from stop just for the fun of it thinking i would get destroyed however odly enough i was able to pull half a car on him by 190km/h and then we had to stop because of traffic. this is weird because even if he had 3 people in the car should he have been able to pull.

Wow your friend's friends are very fat .. lol
ya zalameh even if he was towing another 323i in the back he would pull on you . Maybe your friend has a 320 not a 330 , im not saying your lying cus anything can happen in a street race but normally he should leave you in the dust .

the 330 should have owned.... not sure what happened if it was an e46 325 i could believe it but....

my 330xi would walk an e36 323 like crazy so a 330i should be doin the same

3 passengers and 2 subs would slow him down quite a bit. and both are auto so there cant be much room for driver error. good kill

e36 and e46 323 are alot different. e36 version is alot lighter and when you open up that restricted exhaust like he has, and has the weight advantage, it's a quick little car.

yeah i understand that under the right circumstances it should have owned me however , i have not been having problem latly pulling on e46 328i let alone e46 323ci last time i tried a friendly race with a friend of mine that has a 323ci e46 i was able to pull on him quite easily. however i am sure that his car is not running properly however you'd think that he would pull anyhow . later this week i will post a video of my car so that you can take an idea how my car pulls.
