The page includes 74 recorded tests for the BMW and 19 for the Toyota, giving useful context beyond a single headline run.
In production form, the M3 leads both headline categories here: its quickest verified 0–60 mph time is 2.7 seconds in the 2024 CS Sedan, while the GR Supra’s best production mark is 3.7 seconds in the 2022 3.0 Premium Coupe. For the quarter mile, the fastest production M3 runs 10.7 seconds, compared with the GR Supra’s best production 12.1-second pass.

Methodology
All 0–60 and quarter-mile results are sourced from independently published road tests by reputable automotive publications. Manufacturer-claimed times are not included. When multiple publications test the same vehicle, each run is listed separately. Production and non-production results are clearly distinguished throughout. Fastest 0–60 and fastest quarter-mile records are treated as independent measurements and may come from different tests, trims, or sources.
