This is a weird matchup. Ultra rare factory track spec edition stripped out interior and worth $200k vs a $30k used wagon. The fact it’s even close shows audi did an amazing fest of engineering with that car.
That launch..... furious wheelspin!!😂 But Anyway... if i have to choose one of these two cars; without doubt i would choose the M3 GTS, the best sounding M3 ever.
worst launch ever As my comment is visible I'd like to share an idea: you should try to do a drag race, a 7 seater tesla model x p100d vs bmw m3/m4. I think at first the tesla would win, but then more and more people would sit in the tesla(more weight). My question is, how much weight is needed to beat the Tesla? I am not really good at 1/4 mile datas, obviously if the race would be more exciting, the m3 can be changed to something else.
Yeah, a awd car vs a rear wheel drive car off the line... Bmw just builds better cars and 100% better engines. Audi's 4.2 is nothing nothing compared to Bmw's S65. Even V8 R8's have a hard time with E92 M3's from a 60 roll. Look it up.
Thanks for the video! Considering that even on a sunny warm day you cannot use the BMW's power, I definitely go for the Audi! In the real world in Europe temperatures drop below 30°C and once in a while it's raining. And I am just a mediocre driver - not a drift king ;-)
Chris Harris did a video on it. Merc is a lot quicker in a straight and is only like 2 tenths slower round the track he was on. Funnily enough though the Black Series is 3 seconds quicker round the ring than the GTS. Black Serires is better though of course :)
Have you ever heard of awd=all wheel drive which means that all tires spin the bmw tho usually makes rwds that drift better and they are not made for drag races
Oh please Matt for ONCE compare the right cars! Previous:M3 CSL(lightweight special version) Vs standard b5 RS4... This: M3 GTS (lightweight special version) Vs standard b7 RS4... Come on...(despite that the video was as always excellent💪)
ferrarieustratios if it would ne the normal m3 the rs4's would Beat them in Drag and Rolling, and everybody would way, heeey thats not fair to compare a awd vs a rwd and the b5 got even more power than the e46. it's ok I think, I love Audi but I think it's all good, Audi don't needs to be the fastest every time, that would be boring like the races a year before where the Audi always wins on the drag
Sebastiaan Peters AutoBild Sportscars M3 GTS instrumented test results from 2010. P.S the standard E92 M3 is faster than this RS4 and the 450bhp RS5 Coupe too.
Both are fantastic cars in their own way but I’d have the Audi all day long. You just couldn’t use the M3’s potential on the public road safely, it needs to be on a track. Where the Audi is perfect for the public road. Probably why I own and drive an Audi A4 Quattro which I’ve had remapped, it’s rather impressive. 😁
You can’t compare the two. The Audi is a luxury performance station wagon and the bmw is a dedicated station wagon. That being said I’m a bit bias being as a b7 rs4 is my dream car and I prefer it.
Yes it was...nt a standard m3.. 75kg lighter than standard m3...rs4 is much more functional and usable..especially in all weather...why the GTS against the rs4...hmmm we both kno
I'm agree with you if you like Bmw.... But isn't a good or excellent test... Bmw Audi Sedan wagon/family/ avant Track perform. Basic DSG track perf. Hot clutch 2 seats (Recaro) 5 seats/basics GTS track street family car Even with these differences, a Bmw prepared for track, less weight, less 3 seats, DSG, etc.... They only can beat a Family avant car in..... 1 sec?? That's not too good for a GT with an Extra preparation for track days.... If you only can escape 20 meters far from the avant.... Think about it.
surly RS4. good for every day, every road, every road surfaces and conditions, in a short city race when traffic light turns green. 1st and 2ed gear the RS4 will always win. Quattro Unlike BMW which is only good for a dry day or perhaps on a track.
I have both. Well standard e92 m3 and an rs4 b7 avant exactly like this one and what he said in the end pretty much summed it all. When it's cold and shitty out there you take the rs4 and you can drive real fast while still being completely safe. When it's nice out and you just want to go for a drive and have fun, you take the M3.
0:57 is the summary of differences between Audi and BMW. BMW makes you laugh but Audi makes you a proud winner dad. It's all about what is your "winner" definition. I think pulling an a few thousand kilos of metal with another a few thousand kilos of metal isn't makes you winner. Just laugh, just drive BMW.
Now thats unfair, why the gts and not the stock m3, gts got more power then stock, and is way lighter. gts is obviostly set up for the track, it dont even got rear seats and speakers.
In modern stats both are slow, but the Audi looks absolutley stunning. What a beautiful car. The stance. The intererior ... a classic masterpiece. Timeless.
@@brocks692 well, you dont compare cars and things by theyre posistion in their manufacture, you compare them in price so its fair compare, you want to see what you get for the money not how much more you have to pay to get the same from other manufacture

As my comment is visible I'd like to share an idea: you should try to do a drag race, a 7 seater tesla model x p100d vs bmw m3/m4. I think at first the tesla would win, but then more and more people would sit in the tesla(more weight). My question is, how much weight is needed to beat the Tesla?

thats how the e92's launch control works , just either wrong tires or tires were to cold, my e92 LC is the same, also that e92 has no rear weight lol
Hasbro But if the BMW want is you will say this is the best launch
MBgamer SA i could be wrong because it’s the GTS, but the E9X chassis was 50/50 weight dist.
I reckon you should have stuck it in 2nd and just stamped on it......

@Jengs lol, nope
m3 gts all day baby!! even the sound are better imo it only lose because of the launch but doesnt matter still a great car
imagine a E30 M basically the M version of the E30 vs the RS2 B2 what a race that would be
///M3 GTS is FIRE
If the m3 E92 GTS had better traction it’s standing quarter mile is probably going to be like 12.7 seconds.
In good conditions and a driver that knows how to drive it can do 12.3
M3 needs a Driver mod. It can do the 1/4 mile in 12.3 seconds when launched properly.
