To evojoerocks: yes I agree whit you the Alpina apears to be slower car: the Opel has 4valve per cylinder vs BMW 2 valvle makes 50% of the success, also the Opel is 3.6 BMW is 3.4 Actual, Opel has modern Close ratio 6 speed gear box huge diffetence makes the onother 50% of the success,BMW has old school 5 speed gear box makes the car not fast. I dont thik you can make on 2nd gear it a close ration and all the gear are shorter I dont say you cant but I will belive it when I see it :)

Lotus Omega goes over 300km/h easily. The Alpina B10 is fast too, but when both cars are stock it doesnt stand a chance against the Lotus. No way the Alpina is quicker between 250-300km/h. We drove +300 back in the days, 4 people in a Lotus Omega, and it hits the 300 mark very quick. The gearbox in the Lotus is a a masterpiece from ZF, 2nd gear goes to 140km/h and 3rd gear reaches over 200km/h. It is a very rare and very fast car. Quickest Limo of the early 90s. Nice comparison and nice track!

Starts missing like it's speed limited at 122mph. I hear air leaks and I was told by someone else the fuel pump could be weak thanks.
Anyway the 325IS came with stronger anti-roll bars. This is a huge difference when driving the car. You can tell right away. I used to have one but wrecked it at 130mph.
I'm taking it kind of easy with this one. Took me a long time to get it back and is the only style BMW I like. Thanks again.
BMW forever. :)
