Unless we\u2019re talking about fully fledged gasoline or electric supercars and hypercars, the Porsche 911 Turbo S is virtually invincible at the drag strip against stock cars. RaceChip was curious to find out whether its modified BMW M3 Competition xDrive would stand a chance against Zuffenhausen\u2019s rocket in an acceleration test.<\/p>\n
With more horsepower and torque, the super sedan seemingly had an advantage. However, there\u2019s more to it than that since the all-paw M3<\/a> is about 60 kilograms (132 pounds) heavier than the 992-generation Turbo S Convertible. Nevertheless, RaceChip\u2019s M3 is a force to be reckoned with, packing a mighty 662-horsepower punch and a colossal 834 Nm (614 lb-ft). That gives it an additional 12 hp and 34 Nm (25 lb-ft) over the speedy cabrio.<\/p>\n Seeing as how the adjacent video was posted by RaceChip<\/a>, some would be tempted to predict the M3 won. However, the tuner is keeping it real by not sandbagging the performance delivered by the all-conquering 911. The Porsche convertible won that day, but the gap frankly wasn\u2019t as big as we would\u2019ve expected. Had it been the significantly lighter coupe rather than the cabrio, chances are the difference would have been a tad bigger.<\/p>\n![\"2022](\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/2022_bmw_m3_xDrive_18-830x553.jpg\" "\\"image")
