Hello people In the beginning I want to clarify one thing first: It’s not about which car is faster and it’s not a sch**** comparison, I don’t own either car, I just wanted to find out something: I’ve been browsing around on Youtube and watching some Tacho videos. Then I compared the following 2 videos from fun:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Y3cN6qb2cchttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fNz0DA6o4c The first video shows the BMW 328i F30 with 8-speed Automa In the second video, the Opel Omega 3.2 V6 4-speed automatic from 0-200 kmh. Now I have run both videos from 100-200 (at the same time) and see, both cars are equally fast! At the start, of course, the Opel has no chance, since the first gear goes up to 90 and the BMW is already there at the 3rd. From 200 kmh the BMW could also be faster, because there are simply more gears available. But my question is: How can this be? Here are the technical data of both models. BMW 328i F30: – 1997cm3 TwinPower turbo with direct injection and Valvetronic – 4 cylinders – 245 hp (5000-6500 rpm) – 350 Nm at 1250-4800 rpm – 8-speed automatic – 0-100 (6.1 s) – 250 kmh Top Speed – 1430 kg Opel Omega 3.2 V6: – 3175 cm3 Suction cup – 6 cylinders – 218 hp at 6000 rpm – 290 Nm at 3400 rpm – 4-speed automatic – 0-100 (depending on the source between 8-9 s) – 240 km/h Top Speed – 1710 kg Empty weight As you can see, the Opel is much heavier and has less hp. I am surprised because the Opel from 140-200 is only in the 3rd gear and there are many more gears available to the BMW. As I said, is out of curiosity, I travel beautifully with my Espace between 160-200 kmh, which is a pleasant cruising speed, much more he does not do (205 kmh on the papers).
