Yeah, but that is for the past-generation M3 so the comparison is not very good. The new M3 F80 will be substantially more expensive and therefor the gap between the two will be far larger than right now.

The engine is great in any case, Alpina giving the N55 back what was taken away from it (i.e. one turbocharger). This is the real successor to the N54 engine.
