330Ci. More power, and RWD. 330Ci is competition for the SS/SC.

Sorry SS 2.4L guys!

Your kidding right?

a 2.4 SS racing a 330ci is about the same as an SS/SC racing an M3. It's just not a race worth racing, haha. You WILL get smoked.

Yeah, 330Ci no shot, one of the older 323's you might stand a chance.

I ran a 330i when I first bought my Red Line, they were a good run for me although I would still pull on him. I could see his snooty face in dismay as I'd pull from him in my rear-view. Good run for the 2.0 but a stock 2.4 will probably be very slowly walked. Runs were from a roll on the Highway BTW.
