Not trying to be a dick, but not all internet data is corrupt. If I posted that data here, it wasn't because I was flagrantly throwing shit online. If you want other sources, try:
Road and Track
European Car
Edmunds.com
etc....
Or risk getting a ticket and do the shit yourself. A chip can help out alot.... don't forget that I mentioned that they didn't specify whether or not the cars are automatic or not. Assume that the 318i was an automatic without a chip, now re-think the possiblilties of a 10sec 0 to 60 mph time.
If you look at the list, my car is listed as having a 0-60 time of 6.9 sec. Do I think it can do that... as an automatic... no. How do I know... I've tried. My friend has my exact car with a manual tranny. Will it do that time stock... pretty damn close.
