BMW M4 G82 vs BMW M3 Evolution

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the BMW M4 G82 is the quicker car, covering it in 12.08 s at 118.1 mph against the BMW M3 Evolution’s 15.42 s — a margin of 3.33 s. To 60 mph the BMW M4 G82 takes 3.82 s and the BMW M3 Evolution 6.99 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Questions

Is the BMW M4 G82 or the BMW M3 Evolution faster?
The BMW M4 G82. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 12.08 s to the BMW M3 Evolution's 15.42 s, a margin of 3.33 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 3.82 s against 6.99 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the BMW M4 G82 0-60 time?
The BMW M4 G82 reaches 60 mph in 3.82 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.08 s at 118.1 mph.
What is the BMW M3 Evolution 0-60 time?
The BMW M3 Evolution reaches 60 mph in 6.99 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.42 s at 94.8 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The BMW M4 G82 trips the lights at 118.1 mph and the BMW M3 Evolution at 94.8 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 9 of 10 for the BMW M4 G82 and 8 of 10 for the BMW M3 Evolution. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
