Was working some #'s for fun assuming that we got a coupe thats like 3,100 lb and 300hp from the 335i engine. That would give the car a power-to-weight ratio of .0967
How would that stack up among other cars that are priced from 25-35k:
BMW 135i/235i (300hp/3100lb) - .0967
2007 Nissan 350z (306hp/3340lb) - .0916
2007 Ford Mustang GT (300hp/3356lb) - .0893
2007 Infiniti G35 coupe (293hp/3524lb) - .0831
2007 Nissan Altima 3.5 (270hp/3294) - .0819
2007 Mazda RX-8 (232hp/3045lb) - .0761
2006 Audi TT (225hp/3230lb) - .0696
2007 VW GTI (200hp/3100lb) - .0645
And compared to cars priced 35k-55k:
2007 Corvette (400hp/3179lb) - .1257
BMW 135i/235i (300hp/3100lb) - .0967
2007 Audi S4 (340hp/3869lb) - .0878
2007 Mitsubishi Lancer EVO (286hp/3274lb) - .0873
2007 Lexus IS350 (306hp/3527lb) - .0867
2007 BMW 335i coupe (300hp/3351lb) - .0840
2007 BMW 328i coupe (230hp/3351lb) - .0686
Of course there's much more to a car than just hp to weight ratio but this was just for fun to see how a 135 or 235 might stack up and it looks like it would stack up great! :biggrin:
