Why is it sad? The Hyundai is officially rated @ 348hp, comes standard with Brembo's and 19" wheels with sticky summer rubber and it STILL managed to be a hair slower than a 335i sport with 18's and standard brakes.

It may be upsetting that somebody could probably burn you at a stop light with their Hyundai, but let's face it - they're sitting inside of a plastic solo cup with an engine. (I'm very pro Hyundai/Kia by the way, they've made massive leaps and bounds - I seriously considered a Gen Coupe before going to the 3)

I'm most surprised about the GT500/ZL1...would've expected the new GT to be faster. That also means that ZL1 is a heck of a bargain.
