Superlative Review!
Superlative review my friend! Excellent review, photographs and analysis. This is an M5 board but I think you've got a lot of new M3 fans in the house.! Amazing food for thought! Now what's the next car going to be a new M3 or M5? Thanks for your excellent critique!

Excellent review
Excellent review as always

I still have an E46 M3
As for the new M3
Pros
- faster
-more hp

My personal cons though are
- look could have been a tad more aggressive in the rear where the 4 tail pipes are looks kinda bland

- They might have a problem with the HP 415hp from a V-8 puts this car against alot of more pwerfulbig displacement V-8's
The Inline 6 of the previous gen M3 won engne of the year award in its category for years primarily because of it HP.
Consider this. Porsche's 997GT3 makes 400 plus hp from a flat 6. BMW may nave wished they put more hp in this car regardless of whether it encroached on the performance of its V-10's
