View Full Version : e46 330xi vs e90 328xi
330xiRaceMachin 12-18-2007, 09:08 PM Comin home from buyin a few x-mas presents and this e90 comes flying behind me and get right on my tail....
he then whips and around and drives right next to me for a while and then takes off again
it semed like he wanted to play so I decide to follow him, i get behind him and he goes to turn right, there are no cars going that way so he makes the turn and punches it, Im right behind him and as soon as i make the turn i punch it, he was about a car ahead of me and at WOT by the time i make the turn and floor it but I caught up to him by the end of second (60mph) and pulled hard all through third and put about 3 or more cars between us by 90mph
(I turned at about 15mph and was in first gear)
he killed it short after because i was still pulling away like crazy...
carrrnuttt 12-18-2007, 11:25 PM I want a daytime vid of your car against your buddy's G35, with the camera IN the G35, so we can tell if he's really pushing it. This story is actually more believable than the one against the G35, but somehow the alarm bells are ringing in my head about it. Something about someone that buys a 330xi, and calls it a "Race Machine" (oh wait, it's "Machin") just screams "deluded".
330xiRaceMachin 12-19-2007, 12:11 AM i picked that name because the car has always been pretty quick even when i first bought it...
ill see what i can do about the daytime video within the next few days but he was definitely WOT

Not as deluded as racing a maxima.
carrrnuttt 12-19-2007, 05:06 PM Not as deluded as racing a maxima.
Haha.
I was waiting for that comment. Really, I was. :lol
My Maxima is faster than a 330xi. Well, at least it's faster than what "normal non-bf.c-fied 330xi" should be.
I have never, nor will I ever, call my Maxima a "Race Machine". I just get on it for shits and giggles when the opportunity is there, and the roads are clear.
How deluded are YOU, considering the OP, whom I called out with his E46, is taking my comment in stride, which earned a lot of respect from me - while you, with your decade-old "Hey it's still a BMW!" image-mobile is trying to act high-and-mighty towards a car that cost at least three times as much as yours in 2002?
Not saying my car is anything special, just saying yours isn't really a solid ground to bash other cars from - unless you're delusional from polishing that BMW badge over and over again with whatever body part you use for physical pleasure (eg: vagina, small penis).
Montague 12-19-2007, 05:44 PM Haha.

You can deflect the issue all you want and resort to childishness. It's not about me. It's about you coming in here calling someone deluded for racing in a 330 when you are racing in a front wheel drive maxima. Think about it.
Montague 12-19-2007, 05:47 PM Haha.

I didn't buy my Maxima and name it a "Race Machin". Nor did I buy it to race with. I bought it to commute, and occassionally carry more than myself in it when I have to pick up kids. I am not delusional about my car.
If you went and picked up an E30 M3, and named it "Race Machin", then it would almost be apropos. But to pick up a largely utilitarian/luxury 330xi - even the AWD system is designed for such (for snow region sales), not performance, and call it "Race Machin" seemed absurd at the time. The OP did account for himself real well though.
carrrnuttt 12-19-2007, 07:12 PM Oh yes, your car is special. As in the FWD special olympics kind of way.
Doesn't that make it that MUCH sadder that it's faster than your image-mobile then? ;)
330xiRaceMachin 12-20-2007, 12:50 AM my 330xi is faster than any stock maxima out there and will also compete with some e30 m3's... not saying its lightning but its the fastest car ive owned and it will run with alot of cars that people dont expect it to, so its a race machine to me
trevordr 12-20-2007, 12:54 AM Wow new 230hp bmws are now getting trounced by the infamous 330xi "Racer". If I owned a 335i i would be worried, that thing gets faster every day.
BALLER KILL
330xiRaceMachin 12-20-2007, 01:03 AM 328xi are slower than g35s and we already went over that one.... but thank god your back ive missed your productive comments
and just so ya know already ran a 335 and got smashed
carrrnuttt 12-20-2007, 01:21 AM my 330xi is faster than any stock maxima out there and will also compete with some e30 m3's... not saying its lightning but its the fastest car ive owned and it will run with alot of cars that people dont expect it to, so its a race machine to me
I've ran a 330i (NO "x") of the E90 variety (faster than the E46), and beat it by 2+ cars to 120. Unless your 330xi is capable of 14.1 stock (which my particular flavor of Maxima is), then you're NOT faster than just "any" stock Maxima. My mods are less than yours, BTW.
330xiRaceMachin 12-20-2007, 03:45 AM I didnt say a stock 330xi i said my 330xi, my friend bought a brand new 3.5 maxima a month or so ago and i convinced her to let my buddy and i take it out and run it against my car and i blew it away... have raced several different types of 3.5 maximas and never had a problem with them... I would think a g35 would be faster than a maxima.... Im very positive I could beat your maxima.... if your ever in Nebraska we'll have to run'em
carrrnuttt 12-20-2007, 04:01 AM I didnt say a stock 330xi i said my 330xi, my friend bought a brand new 3.5 maxima a month or so ago and i convinced her to let my buddy and i take it out and run it against my car and i blew it away... have raced several different types of 3.5 maximas and never had a problem with them... I would think a g35 would be faster than a maxima.... Im very positive I could beat your maxima.... if your ever in Nebraska we'll have to run'em
Now, I'll REALLY have to call BULL.
NOW you "happen" to "know" someone who has a 3.5 Maxima? :rolleyes Also, if the Maxima was indeed "brand new", then it would be a CVT-equipped automatic, considering that the last 6 speeds went out in '05 as '06 models. Also, my generation Maxima is faster than any 2004+ models, since they got significantly heavier after 2003.
I won't be heading to Nebraska anytime soon (and I think you know that, hence your bold challenge). How about you post YOUR speedo vid. Here's mine from 80-140: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qPlAE1Ij4A
Note that I downshifted to 4th, when I had more than enough room to downshift to 3rd, and would have been even faster, had I been going full tilt before I hit 80, instead of having to "dig out" from there.
Your turn. :help
330xiRaceMachin 12-20-2007, 04:23 AM you think you could put something together a little better than that its a little hard to time and you cant even see where you start.... try a 40-120 and get that posted
and you act like maximas are these rare expensive cars... why on earth would i know someone in a city with over a million people that has a maxima wouldnt that be wierd, and yes it does have the CVT and its wierd and it freaks ya out the first time you see it
Iqbad 12-20-2007, 06:06 AM How much does a 330xi weigh? ShouldnŽt the four wheel drive slow it down a bit in a roll? Does it have a better 0-60 time than a RWD 330ci?
Heck, even my old volvo can put up a fight against a 330 in lower speeds! =)
www(.)youtube.com/watch?v=WyUL4vPli08
330xiRaceMachin 12-20-2007, 10:19 AM ok.... 1 of 4 things
1. thats the worst driver of all time
2. thats not a 330
3. you have dropped thousands on your engine
4. he was at half throttle to your WOT
a 330 should have been moving alot quciker than that
Frogger 12-20-2007, 11:21 AM Wanna race me? I'll drive to Nebraska. If I walk you, will you stop posting this garbage?
My 2 cents: I'd rather drive a 330 than a Maxima, but the Maxima is faster, especially from a roll.
Montague 12-20-2007, 11:42 AM I didn't buy my Maxima and name it a "Race Machin". Nor did I buy it to race with. I bought it to commute, and occassionally carry more than myself in it when I have to pick up kids. I am not delusional about my car.

Why in the world do you care what someone names their car? Is your life that empty? Seriously, why? Let him name it Batmobile, F1 Champ, whatever he friggin chooses to name his own damn car. Even if it's a 318 and he goes around racing and names his car ANYTHING, it's none of your friggin business. Get a life.

If I post that vid, will you post yours?
Also, please make note that a CVT Maxima is a low 15-second car. That is FAR cry from a low 14-second car that most 6-speed Maximas are, so don't use that car as benchmark.
Montague 12-20-2007, 11:52 AM Doesn't that make it that MUCH sadder that it's faster than your image-mobile then? ;)
This is an E46 330xi vs E90 328 thread, yet you want to turn it into a contest with the OP and race him in your Crapxima. How sad? If the measure of a car is only about how fast it goes in a straight line the C63 will be winning all the comparos against the E92 M3. Put your Crapxima against even the 325 on a track or road course and I'll teach you a thing or two. It's sad that a bmw originally designed in the late 1980s will outhandle your 21st century Crapxima.
Never mind the 325, I have something for you if you ever get out of the desert and into civilization.
You seriously have insecurity issues.

Now you want to race on youtube?
You want to race the OP via video. How much more ridiculous can you get.
We're getting into the realm of "my video is faster than your video" racing.

Why are you continously attacking him? This seems like animosity that carried from another thread. YOU hijicked this thread and made it into an off-topic debate between you and carnutt. Why get so bitter about critisicm. Most people have come to the understanding that the OP is full of himself.

I'll pretend you didn't see the thread where the OP posted a video with the G and shut everybody up, including carnutt. Constructive criticism is one thing. Criticism just to be obnoxious is another. Do you believe inconsequential stuff like what someone names their car is constructive?
If the OP is full of himself, let him be. Sooner or later he will get a reality check about how fast his car really is, or not. I know I've been there.

I did see it. You can also see vids of 323's beating wrx's, does that mean 323's are faster than wrx's? You should definately understand that carnut posts things like that, always has and always will, but much respect to him because he posts facts majority of the time.
Why would you name your car period? I admit it wasn't constructive, but for someone to just start posting their car is faster than such and such vehicle, then all of a sudden they state they have a friend with the same car and he beat it is a little iffy. If bet if he debated that his car was faster than an LSx equipped vehicle, he would bust out with "my friend has a camaro/transam and i beat him. "
By this point im just rambling and lost my train of thought..... Damn you and your edit.. :devillook

Number three is probably closest to reality. 3000 dollars for 330ci performance is pretty good iŽd say. I can keep up with M3E46 in some some intervals. (Not in high speed!!)

In case you forgot, this is the kill section where people are supposed to post tall tales about cars they beat. People come in here and post about cars they beat when the other driver probably didn't have a clue he was racing and had a thread started about him being killed....ala the 335 vs Viper thread. No one should take this seriously. Even if a real race did occur, you can beat up on one car and come up on a similar car and be trounced. Some people here, like carnutt, have a tendency to treat the kill stories like they have to be the gospel truth as indicated by the stock cars' specs everytime.
If those requirements aren't met, in their eyes, you have to be subjected to hell. Again, no one should take these kill stories so seriously.
Also, will I name my car? No. Have I ever named a car? No. I personally find it a little odd. However, this is the good ol USA, if someone chooses to name their car, let them. They have the freedom and right to do so without being called out on it. I'll defend their freedom and right to do so via a keyboard. Just don't send me to Iraq. I'm not that brave in defending freedom and rights.

Valid points, but you have the right to say, and type with-in legal means, but just because so, doesn't mean people don't have the right to criticize someone elses choice.
I'd rather debate by numbers and facts rather than, my friend has this, i beat it, thus it accounts for every other car just like it, and therefor I'm faster than it. The OP just stated he can beat any stock maxima 3.5 or 3.0 and the way it sounds, any g35 or 350 period. That is a bold statement, and even though carnut maybe a nissan wh0re, at least it's more diversity than a bunch of bmw fanboys.
Don't think I haven't had debates where Carnut and Serg chewed me out, but when a new topic arises, I keep the debates of previous threads in those threads and not let it carry over.

So you are openly admitting that there is a lot of BS'ing going on in here then?
As for the "gospel truth", I don't even expect it, and as the saying goes, "anything can happen on the streets". It's just that the naive fanboys ARE the ones that are taking all the BS as "gospel truth" on here, which is basically what started this notion way back (that seems to have died down, thank god) that ALL 325's can walk 350Z's. All because some owner on here happened on a 350Z driver that either can't drive, or was just messing with him. Letting crap like that go will only lead to even worse arguments later on.
...and even though carnut maybe a nissan wh0re...
Hey. I've defended almost every model of car on here. I would think I'm better than that. :( I don't even like G35's and 350Z's (and have admitted that time and again) as something to spend my money on. I just happen to currently own a Nissan brand, hence my recent personal experiences will relate to what car I currently own. I have personally owned practically every major make of car available in the U.S. since my first car, and that doesn't even include my family's cars that I drove when I was younger. Maybe that's why I can't stand those who would put down another make to themselves feel better about what they happen to own. I have even argued with other Maxima owners who have tried to put down other makes by stating outright fallacies. And if I do end up buying another BMW for my next purchase, my posts in here won't change ONE bit.

330xiRaceMachin 12-20-2007, 06:02 PM first off i didnt name my car... its what i picked as my user name not my car name....
and i didnt say i have a friend with every car we talk about
07 WRX
03 SER SpecV
05 Accord V6
04 G35
05 is300
06 Legacy GT
0* Jetta VR6
08 Maxima
05 Cobalt SS
04 Jeep Rubicon
06 Ford Focus V6
-and thats about all i can think of, if i say i have a friend with another car i might be full of it, dont know anyone with a camero/transam but i have been destroyed by a transam
I know how fast my car is, im not in some imaginary word, I know i can not beat every g35/350 i imagine a 6-speed would be a different story
as for the maxima im still not worried
BMW Loe 12-20-2007, 11:51 PM Hey, I might be in Omaha Saturday before New Years, want to do some friendly runs with my G35 5AT (stock)?
