    You would have to heavily modify the Vette for it to win. It's not fair to compair the two if both cars are stock. Supercharge the Vette and it might be close.

    OK lets compare a 2010 Corvette to a 2010 BMW and see who would win

    And '84 Corvette was just as much junk as anything BMW produced in '84 and then it would still probably win

    Like the others have said, the Vette will lose. The 84 Corvette wouldn't beat an M3 if it had a 100 shot on it. In fact, I'd bet good money my diesel 4X4 will beat your Vette in a drag race. Benton, I-57 this April if ya wanna.

    an M3 would walk all over a Corvette ! especially one from 84

    No contest. Even the 1986 M3 (first year of production) was only short ten HP, but a lot lighter.

    The 84 Vette is a dog. Your best bet is to pull the cross-fire injection engine and replace it with a big block, the bigger the better. 245 hp just doesn't get it.

    Total loss for the Vette. The Vette is purely low RPM torque, not high RPM horsepower.

    you would have to double the hp of the corvette to beat the bmw, a stock 1984 corvette had 205hp

    It won't even be close, the M3 will absolutely rape the Corvette in every possible way, every possible race. Don't even bother racing.
