- It’s time for a Germany vs Italy head-to-head!
We’ve got Mat lining up in the all-new BMW M4 CSL, and he’s going up against Yianni in the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA! Both of these cars are super rare, with only 10 of each being sold in the UK! The question is, which is quickest over the quarter-mile?
Starting with the BMW, it’s powered by a 3-litre twin-turbo straight-six which is good for 550hp and 650Nm of torque. It drives the rear wheels only, and tips the scales at 1,625kg - 100kg less than the standard M4! It’ll set you back a fair bit, though, costing £126,000!
Then we have the Alfa. It’s housing a 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6 under the bonnet which can produce 540hp and 600Nm. It’s lighter than the BMW, at 1,540kg, but it’s also more expensive, coming in at £150,000! Just like the BMW, it also drives the rear wheels only.
So the Alfa is down on power, but it’s also lighter! Will that prove decisive? There’s only one way to find out - LET’S RACE! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Which would you choose? VOTE BELOW!
VOTE: BMW M4 CSL!
VOTE: Alfa Giulia GTA!
Both cars are insane! But the BMW M4 CSL is my favourite!

Finally seeing the iconic duo after a long time.
Iconic duo? The giulia ist just a bad copy of the bmw lol
@@AFollower0416 you have no idea what alfa means, isn‘t it? Giulia is a 2016 which beat on nurburgring the m4 back then. Gta/m is just a qv tuned ;)
@@AFollower0416 bad....that must be why the Giulia won pretty much every comparison with the M3 when it came out...that M4 is hideous.
BMW have to lie about their horsepower figures to win. Look up videos of the M4 CSL on a Dyno. It makes 605hp and 740nm of torque....it's got way more power than the Giulia. Of course it's going to win.

It'd be interesting seeing a fast lap of them around a track
pretty sure the lighter + more downforce alfa would win
@@alexcepile1420 It already has difficulty beating an M3 competition, so an M4 gts, no chance. The Alfa has an older architecture, competing with the BMW F8X. G80 is another world.

The Alfa generates way more downforce than the M4, it's a track build spec, not a drag build one

If you were talking about the Rolling Race then yess you’re right. But the drag race??
They both aren’t for drag racing but lap times i think the Alfa would smash the Beemer
@@uThuthukani i dont think so, i think that the bmw would still be faster around a Track. The current 3/4 Series Platform is just incredibly potent in the regular m3/4 Wehre as the Alfa is slowly aging. I hagelt Drive the csl yet but From what i experienced With the m3 competition i dont believe that the Alfa would Beat the csl on Track. Especially in you Consider that the csl is the fastest bmw ever on the nordschleife. I would still take the Alfa though 😂 just to beautiful

That Alfa just looks sooooo good, I don't really care if it's slower when it looks and sounds so much better.

Your channel is the best
There is a video on TH-cam where M4 CSL without any tune shows 605 HP and 720NM on the dyno. And in this video, you can see that difference in power.
Yeah, it's ridiculous how BMW always lie about their power figures. That's almost 10% more than they claim which is enormous.
Gnata cheating…
No question about it. The power figures BMW claims for the M-cars is more like wheel horsepower than crank horsepower.
@@MD-uu5nt it's not about lying lol it's just a 10% margin they use becos not every engine will perform the same, plus German hp is always stronger than Italian hp
@@MD-uu5nt you think thats a bad thing or what? oh no my sports car has more power than stated! lol least they dont over exaggerate like italian and american makes.

Great to see Yanni back in these drag races. Please can you get his Lamborghini back on the channel to do some awesome drag races like this one. It would be interesting seeing a base model Porsche 911 Carrera or a Carrera GTS go up against the BMW M4 CSL in a future drag race.
🙏🏼🙌🏼
M4 Competition AWD did 10.9 in 1/4! I see in locate show as 11.2 for stock M3 RWD auto from drag!
how arrogant and rude Matt has become ..
A 911 GTS would beat the CSL. Porsche are the best in the business in launch control, Porsche made the best DCT by today standards (the famous PDK). My guess is that in a drag race the 911 GTS would beat the CSL, but i can't say the same for the roll race.
@@Y14nny Yianni, hope in the next drag race, you do a drag between Ayumu Uehara's LM55 Mazda vs Red Bull X2019 Competition.
Always love when Yanni is there. His face expressions are always epic when he loses 🤣😂👍👍👍
Daniel is also gives a great energy
Too much expression , he should be focusing on racing, it’s seems like he lost most of the time.
Questions what CSL will show on dyno? They usually have more in real life than in papers
That down force on the Alfa doesn’t help but around a track that Alfa must be a dream. And it’s gorgeous
I knew that alfa will win the brake test .. its really a track focused machine
And its lighter lol
Yep. Alfa has been excellent on this test.
It will win the break-first test as well. Because alfa
@@Barthoization for sure 🤣
The Alfa looks and sounds better, but BMW goes better.
it doesn't come as a surprise that the CSL outperforms the GTAm because
1. on the dyno the CSL shows 605 HP, where the normal M3/M4 already has 550 HP
2. the announced weight for the Giulia is the dry weight, so without any fluids. My Q with carbon seats and CCM breaks weights 1.755 kg, which is much more than the official weight of 1.620 kg. So both cars will weigh almost the same ... and then there is a weight difference between Mat and Yanni ... lol
This is the very important detail missed. The reason the M4 walked away is it had around 70BHP more than the Giulia.
BMW told very large porky pies about the power output of their car whereas Alfa Romeo didn't. In fairness if someone owned a GTA they could gamble and have it tuned which is less than £1000 and it would have 605bhp as well but it would void the warranty on your 150k Alfa Romeo.
Weight difference between the drivers is not a big deal, considering the German have got almost a full tank and the Italian even got the light on at the dash so that is kind of out the window imho.
But yes them Germans lie about their power, is that not a good thing though?
I think that at high speed and with high air resistance, frontal air resistance and aerodynamics play a key role in achieving speed.
With the Alfa having more wings and spoilers, a bigger silhouette and 50Nm less than the M4 CSL, I'm not surprised the BMW is faster.
No one believe that the M4 has the power announced…
Look up videos of the M4 CSL on a Dyno. It makes 605hp and 740nm of torque....it's got way more power than the Giulia. Of course it's going to win.
Difficile da accettare 🤣🤣 povera Giulia 🤣🤣
@@Lamarotante l'unica cosa triste e la brutta faccia della bmw
@@South4153 neanche a me fa impazzire ma sono gusti. La Giulia comunque è stata bastonata qui. Sarebbe da vedere in circuito comunque
Maybe it is called efficiency....
The italians are pretty correct and optimistic about their HP numbers, where the Germans underrate it so massively that you can almost call it lying. Usually you can count another 20HP on top of the official number. The 2021 Supra for example with the BMW B58 has 382HP on paper but close to 400 HP on the dyno. I suspect that CSL is putting out around 570 580HP
-edit: I just read that on a Dyno the CSL puts out 605hp..
Holy shit, more than 50hp in the Dyno
The alfa wasn't doing that bad then
Ok….. GTAm still would destroy it in corners and it’s 200lb lighter than a CSL lol
@@30hours51 M4 CSL does the ring in 7:15.
I doubt the GTAm is faster. Alfa have never given any times for it for some reason.
dam that’s crazy
Would go for the Alpha as need a family car right now :) M4 would be fun though!
2dr vs. 4dr... way to go, as always 👏 👍 🙌
I would prbably still go for the Giulia. The sound alone is worth it
сам не си повярва
Same and if it was the M3 in the video instead of the M4, the Giulia would have won, because the M4 is lighter than a M3
And you can launch it over and over and over again

In order to have another BMW victory 😂
@@jacopofrancescon2324 S58 engines had a major recall due to the main bearing shell in 2021, so this engine had problems. But unfortunately it is its design which would offer problems in the recing ambient. First of all it is a 6 inline engine: its crankshaft and camshaft are very long and therefore they lack the stiffness of a v6 engine. It is common experience, if we try to twist 2 bars of the same material and diametre applying the same torque the longer bar will twist more. For the S58, compared to the Alfa v6 90 deg, this translates into being less capable to be tuned to reach high RPM and become lighter. In DTM or in Formula 1, v6 90 degrees engines can be tuned to weigh less than 100kg and run at 14000 or more RPM. This is simply not feasible for a straight 6 cylinder engine. Furthermore S58 has a bore of 84mm and a stroke of 90mm. It is a so called "undersquare engine ". On the contrary, Alfa Quadrifoglio has a bore of 86.5mm and a stroke of 82mm. It is what is called "oversquare" engine, like racing cars. How does it translate? If we calculate the piston average velocity, this is given by the formula Vm=2Cn/60, where Vm is the average velocity in m/s, C is the stroke in m (so divide the value in mm by 1000) and n is RPM. Let's see what does it mean for S58 and Alfa Quadrifoglio engines at, say, 7000RPM. With the formula above at 7000RPM, the average piston speed of S58 is 21m/s while for the Alfa v6 90 deg engibe the value is 19,1m/s. As you can easily see, S58 pistons have higher average speeds (roughly 10% more than the Giulia, because their stroke is roughly 10% bigger) and at 7000RPM S58 passes the border of 20m/s, while Giulia's engine is still below 20m/s. This is the reason why Giulia Quadrfoglio is better designed and more reliable for races. Furthermore, while M4csl has a "chipped" version of the base S58 engine, the Giulia Gtam has hardware changes: pistons are new design and the cooling jets increase from 2 in the normal Quadrifoglio to 4 in the Gta and Gtam. In other words, while the M4Csl is nothing more than a "marketing showcar" unsuitable for racing, the Giulia Gtam is a proper race car, with race cars characteristics and big margins for tuning. A mechanical engineer, professional pilot or any enthusiast with a sound technical background would have no doubt in choosing the Giulia
@@aralfa Luckily I'm a structural engineer and so I can try to understand what you're talking about, unfortunately I'm not a mechanical engineer so I can't answer you with the same technical language lol 😅 However, the first comment refers to the stability of the car. Since you've commented, I take the opportunity to ask you how much influence has the engine geometry on the car's torsional stiffness. Honestly I expect it could be an effect on that, but not 100%.
Anyway, does the V6 is an "Alfa" project or a V(8-2) Ferrari?

You guys are great, look forward to the next race.
Yianni looks like his soul was sucked away with that rolling race. LMAO!!
Similarly to Porsche GT3 RS, the Alfa has a lot of down force and is made for agility and high speed cornering. An extremely high downforce is a problem for straight line drag speed. So it’s not that the Alfa can’t be quicker on straight line, it’s because it was configured to have a much higher downforce.
the bmw gives 604 horsepower in a power bank, lying on the power of their cars is already a bmw classic. good video!!
