Drop 800 lbs wheeeeeeeed
I don’t think the M3 is going to be 3600 lbs. An F80 Competiton with Dct was about 3750. Add awd, a heavier ZF auto, more tech and equipment and I think it’s going to be 3900-4000 lbs.
The 992S with only 440 hp is running 11.2@125 mph and more impressive are the track times. I imagine the M3 with 100 more hp might be close in a straight line but will not be the nimble, agile and fast track car the 992 is.
BMW has tried to compete with the likes of the 911 in the M4 GTS and despite huge advantages like cup tires and 80 hp and 100 tq it was no faster than a base 991.2 if you equal out tires and well off the pace of an S let alone anything higher up.
