///M 0-60 in 4.4 seconds?

[Jamie W]

Just saw this on Autotrader - http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201303105703674/sort/default/usedcars/body-type/coupe/model/z4/make/bmw/onesearchad/used/onesearchad/nearlynew/onesearchad/new/postcode/bn435js/page/4/radius/1501/keywords/m?logcode=p

Says she will do 0-60 in 4.4 seconds? I noticed there are some mods but doesn't mention any engine mods so am wondering if anyone can shed some light on how it could be 4.4 secs when all the stated times are 5.0?

He's probably got the figure wrong/ exaggerated to help his chances of a sale?

I've seen quoted figures anywhere from 4.8-5 seconds, but never 4.4.

Its a joke , marketing ploy to sell the car , anyway 0-60 times are daft anyway as most people need fast times between 60 - 100 for overtaking.

Defo looks like that's the case from the rest of the advert too!

And the ///M certainly delivers with all of that torque!!

This car/ advert has been discussed in a couple of threads already. Have a read, you'll find them in the "Buy and sell" forum, quite recent topics.
