what he raced was a 335i, you can tell by dual exhaust, (unless he was a poser) but the car did have wheels that only come on the 335 sedan right?? but he did get a jump, and whoever was driving the 335 did not maximize, otherwise, the 335 would have taken the modded e36 m3 by at least a car length, if not more

from looking at the video it appeared to be a 335i (exhaust).
additionally those wheels DO BREAK LOOSE however on the video they didnt...
I wouldnt be suprised if he had all the Traction control on and this directly resulted in the loss.

the wheels look like sport wheels and do come with the sport/sedan e90.

These wheels come on both the 330 and 335 sport model sedans.

Great post. Its his friends car and he doesnt even know what his firend drives? He also said it had paddles which only come on a 335i. I bet if I raced him in my 330i it would be a close race.

The M3 driver jumped the race and the 335i driver simply doesn't know how to drive his car. He clearly did not power brake the launch.
Beating someone in a faster car is easy when the driver of the faster car doesn't know how to DRIVE the faster car!
