That's what my friend's Civic Si is for.

I've only burnt the clutch once and that was when I was practicing how to take off on a steep incline.

u'll find your 330 will spank your accord too

I been wanting to do that... get my friend to drive the Accord and see how the 330Ci fares against it.

The one track that is near where I live shut down after Hurricane Lilli when the grandstands got blown over on to the track.

Too bad for him I was in my Accord. Hehehe

i've smoked a V6 accord, and my Z3's the 170hp 2.5l, not the 186hp newer version, so i'm positive the guy racing you didn't know what he was doing. the accord is only 300 lbs heavier than the Z3 btw

True, but I'm pretty sure the majority of V6 Accords you run into on the streets don't have headers, underdrive pulleys or 15" stock LX rims. (My 17" rims are waiting for new tires when spring comes back around)

As far as 1/4 mile times go, what are normal times for a stock Z3, 170 and 186HP versions?

Thanks.

Man get in your 330....u don't know what ur missing it will make the accord look silly...well until u supercharge it

edmunds.com road tested my car and got a 6.9 sec 0-60 and 15.2 quarter mile, whereas the stock accord is something like half a second behind in the 0-60.

oh yeah, the newer 2.5l has a 6.7 0-60 according to bmw. forget the 1/4 mile time
