Silly man, the cupra has 180 HP. Smaller and lighter, will beat what I said it would.
Wanna see vid or not?

The vid is of me vs it?!
You dont think the Cupra 180 would go quicker than a 170HP Audi?

I had a 2004 330i w/ZHP that was rated at 235 hp. Mine was a manual transmission.
I remembered the 0-60 mph on that car was 5.7 sec.

All that matters is this ... Anything slower than a 335d (stock) is 'really really slow'. Anything quicker than a 335d (stock), but slower than a 335d (mapped) is 'a bit quick' Anything quicker than a 335d (mapped), is 'properly quick' No other units of measurement are necessary. |

Either way mate, Do you think a 330i would keep up with a stock 335i?

I'm getting the hang of it now mate

But .. a 330i isn't sluggish by any stretch. It has decent acceleration, but just not as much as a 335i / 335d (Which was the point of the thread I think) |

I honestly cant tell when you are being serious DXB and when you are not - you cant honestly enjoy repeatedly talking about driving in a straight line faster than other cars?
I like my car. Its comfy, well built, quick enough. But seriously, I wouldnt spend the countless hours you do on many forums defending the straightline speed of a diesel 3 series? |

It aint just straightline speed is it though.
Either way, a 330i E46 is not as quick. Thats 100%! We all know that! You do not agreee?
