However in a real world track environment, the M3 will probably be in a class of it's own. Unfortunately there are no factual data or creditable articles to back up my "innuendo" / "unsubstantiated claim". Just a gut hunch based on the conglomerate of information/misinformation available as fodder for common consumption. Just a thought.  It'd be interesting for a "credible" (yes, I use this term loosely  ') media source to conduct a performance comparison of the M3 to the 335i xDrive (Summer tires w/Adaptive suspension). Gut instinct says it will be close. |
handling wise it can never compare to m3, thats where m3 beats out beasts like c63 amg and cts-v but straight line is not one of m3's stong points. (not that it should be, it is fast enough)
