BMW M4 Comp G82 vs Chevy Corvette C8 drag and roll race. Shocking Result.

[@Luke-cb3ly]

I've seen several dynamometer tests on both cars and the results were as follows. C8 430whp - 450whp. The M4 competition's was always between 509whp - 536whp. In short, the difference in power between the two is quite large and the result was obvious from the start, since in addition to being AWD, the BMW has an advantage of more or less 60whp

[@kuvyoghmoobamelica6883]

​@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921 I agree with that. Most of BMW cars are heat soaked before doing their testing, which results in lower hp on dyno. I had a 2015 RC350 F-sport and that thing was alright fast, with 306hp, butttttt.. when I test drove the 2018 N55 Motor M2 with 19,000 miles, holy shit, that thing was definitely not 365hp as advertised lol. Felt more like 420-430hp and 450lb torque. It's really not that bad for $40,000 used. I'm also considering the m2 competition "advertised" 405hp/406ft-lb. It's probably more like 450 or 475hp.

[@ClintG-rh6kh]

I believe there is speculation that the hp figures are whp...which makes sense. Good stuff Sam!

[@waynedeason213]

German auto makers do give their real horsepower numbers, they just do it in the worst possible conditions. So this M4 will make it's advertised 503 horsepower at 15,000 ft and 110 degrees with 90% humidity. What it makes elsewhere is a different story. They do this so you are guaranteed advertised horsepower no matter where you are and what conditions you are in.

The weight varies depending on the configuration and packages. An M3/M4 with carbon bucket seats and carbon ceramic brakes can be considerably lighter than a fully loaded car without those. Also, it matters where the weight is distributed. C8 wheels are bigger and a few pounds heavier.

C8Z has horrible torque with the flat plane crank engine. These turbocharged straight 6 make crazy torque. Torque wins races period especially if you can plant it to the ground with Xdrive and for the price of a new Z you can get a much better performing car than a C8Z. the M3 and M4 with downpipes and exhaust and other supporting mods will put down 6 to 700 to the wheels AWD hell you can even tune the new Z yet very disappointing GM could have done a lot better. The C8ZR1 will be the the car to set the bar against if it has the good that are floating around.

[@keithjackson4985]

I own a Supra, at least for a short while longer. It will be for sale soon, but as far as performance, it moves. It has HKS exhaust, but even before that, I thought it has to be making more than 400HP!

[@shaunmcinnis1960]

Funny you say that. I have a 2022 z4 M40i, same platform, and I swear it’s over 400 for sure, more like 425. Very fast car. Just as fast as my C6.

[@BoxingWave]

Not shocked at all. The Corvette winning would’ve been shocking.

[@dustingre8]

Why didn’t you post your xdrive quarter mile run?

[@SamCarLegion]

Machine didn’t record

[@SamCarLegion]

One time i think it was 2.4 for xdrive

[@isaimothomoholo1859]

Power to weight ratio shows that both cars are equal even after dynamometer test.

[@red_j_ruff_wood6384]

Americans measure power at the crank. Germans measure power at the wheels.

[@efthimios]

Did NOT expect that 😮😮😮

BMW M4 manual is all you need. Forget the slushbox.

[@nhlanhlamagagula7467]

Great review Sam...but please provide stats we been begging for stats on all races...still not today

[@SamCarLegion]

We don’t have the machines for roll races

[@volvoteam4426]

​@@SamCarLegion11.3 corvett 1\4 mile 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣.. 12.3 maybe.???

[@Pigpenthemagnificent]

Expected with similar HP and torque. I saw one race on KZbin with a M4 with 503 HP vs Ford Mustang GT500 with 760 HP! They were wondering why the M4 lost?

[@12DreamsFull]

This video proves nuthin' because the driver plays a huge part in who the winner is going to be. I own a bmw but I am not crazy enough to believe it will outrun a corvette.

[@SamCarLegion]

You have a BMW 330i?

[@12DreamsFull]

@@SamCarLegion No, the 335i turbo. I love it but I greatly love and respect the corvette even more. I've driven both but only own the bmw.

[@SamCarLegion]

That car with a small tune will smoke a corvette

[@12DreamsFull]

@@SamCarLegion A small tune...excuse my ignorance but what is a small tune? My car stays tuned up.

[@ItsJustMeMcKee]

I have an M4 and although I've never raced a Corvette, I'm not sure how the M4 would do against a Z06. I'm guessing not near as well lol. Maybe an M4 with a tune could beat the Z06 but not a stock M4.

[@dennistv598]

The bmw m4 with a downpipe and tune will run laps around the Z06, find a good tuner

[@kawailauaelani]

Great race

[@coreyegan6751]

The Alibaba Lambo. Can't hold a candle against zee German studs!

[@wheelwrightpl9429]

I would like to see M2 vs Corvette, because in some tests M2 is not far off M3/M4

[@frankjohnson3868]

The person driving the C8 is losing on purpose, Horrible shifts, lol. Why even waste your time posting this

[@G82Watts]

People really saying do the zo6 likes its not a 160k car with dealership markups 😂😂 these 2 are the same relative price. The m4 gives u the bang for the buck and has wayyy better luxury and tech. The fact even in RWD mode it was beating the C8 in this vid 😂😂

[@wheelwrightpl9429]

The BMW coolaid drinker probably chipped his car..

[@hpickettz34]

Car and driver had the same results

[@carguy...]

And if most people don't understand, with a basic tune using your cellphone , the bmw can go over 600rwhp easily unlike any other car which is just crazy.

[@N0neofyourbusiness.]

You’re clearly not a car guy. Mclaren 720s, 765lt, and many more can make crazy power with just downpipes and a tune. Bmws are slow. When have you seen a 2000whp+ bmw build? Never. Corvettes have higher build potential, I can show you a c7 z06 making over 5k to the wheels running 5’s. And there are multiple corvettes on the streets over 2000whp+

[@carguy...]

@@N0neofyourbusiness. bro relax, I'm talking about basic mods, Downpipe and tune pushing almost 700rwhp, not talking maxed out builds. Take a breath and relax big boy......

[@refillz5281]

​@N0neofyourbusiness. Not with factory engines they arent 😂.

[@carguy...]

@@refillz5281 you have ZERO knowledge buddy, look up PLENTY of stock engine MK5 supras with top mount turbo on E50 pushing just over 900rwhp. You know NOTHING about what you're talking about. Just stop please.

[@cysawyer4829]

2wd race is BS. The xDrive M4 isn't meant to race in 2wd. It doesn't have any launch control in that mode and only uses a basic traction control. If you want to run a 2wd against the Vette, use a 2wd M4. It at least have the ability to put the power down and had launch control.

[@Crysisplaya]

That Beamer is fast but I’d still take the C8

[@eclipse1281]

Like in all other video, top of the line against regular c8, bring z06 or E-Ray

[@G82Watts]

U serious? This isn't top of the line. A m5 or m8 is. Also these are the same price. A z06 with dealership markups are going for 160k same with the eRay

[@taliyy_]

So what was the time of the m4 in Xdrive??
