Ferrari 360 Modenna vs 335i Procede!!

lvwirelessguy · 05-01-2007, 05:21 PM

There is something really wrong about even mentioning both these cars in the same sentence. Besides that why would someone with a 360 want to engage a 335i in the first place? to prove what?

Funny.
I keep reading about the "It doesn't matter. Your car will still be a 3 series."
I got this a lot with my VW GLI.
I took the GLI to the strip with a bunch of old E46 M3 friends and beat all 3 of the stock M3s. I was pretty happy about my wins and my friends were saying,
"It will still be a VW", but I said,
"Well, I still beat you with a $250 car payment."

That's what it comes down to.
Sure, I'd love to have the Ferrari, but I wouldn't want the payment.

I don't think owning the car itself is just about the performance. Ferrari has some meaning, heritage, power, sex appeal, etc etc. VW is just... an old nazi car with a new twist?

It's all about taste, and not everyone is going to agree. IMO I'd rather be having a smash in my M3 than driving some clunky VW.

Understand. I downgraded to my VW from my E46 M3 to save up for my newborn, so I will agree that there is a huge difference in the luxury.

But, I did this to save money, and like I said, it all comes down to a car payment.
My 335 is on it's way, and I will be happier with the ride and performace, but i will miss the easy car payment.

That's true. Money is always a concern, unless you have more money than you know what to do with. *shakes fist at so-cal*

Ferrari 360 Modena - 1/4 mile 12.3 Seconds @ 119mph

BMW 335i Procedee - 1/4 mile 13.0 Seconds @ 106 mph

Does that answer your question?

You guys are hilarious! I love this forum.

note how Superman was only a few body length behind when he started catching up?? THen after about 1000mph the flash just kept pulling away. Also, if Flash gets Procede and goes in for a check up, will the doctor be able to detect it and void his health insurance?

wtf is all these damned posts about what races what and whos going to win...

its about as crazy as the fuel pump threads.

lvwirelessguy · 05-01-2007, 05:58 PM

Anyone who buys a BMW because it can beat someone elses car is not playing with a full deck, and probably is still in high school.

Low 13s isn't close to low 12s.

In a no holds barred fight, Superman would stomp the Hulk's ass. Superman could use some super speed and land some staggering punches and stun the Hulk a little, then grab him up and hoist him into space. When he's in space, Hulk can't do a damned thing but suffocate. Also, Superman could put the Hulk on a collision course with the Sun thereby burning his green ass up. (Even if he could survive, he'd still be stuck there and therefore neutralized. Hulk can jump, but he can't fly!)

If the fight had rules like being confined to the ground, I'm not so sure who'd win.

Ryan335 · 05-01-2007, 07:44 PM

I've seen a video of an E63 walking a 360 with exhaust. If you can take an E63, chances are you can take a 360
