M3 buddy of mine also had a Yamaha YZR/R1 sport bike. 1 liter on a sport bike, producing 134hp, yet weighing about 600lbs (about 4&1/2 lbs per horse) while the Saab, NA is what? 150, maybe 170hp? And it weighs about 2500lbs (a little over 14 and a quarter lbs per horse...). This performance level in the bike will kick any car's ass except the very fastest cars -- indy/F1/IMSA/CART, etc...
