even the M3 4 door which is the same body as your 323i

but as a drivers car, it definitely gets my heart pumping with loads of adrenaline running in the blood and thats just from sitting in the passenger seat.

pingy - u really have to sit in one to appreciate all the fine detail of the m3: the free reving engine, the suspension that magically absorbs minor bumps on the road and yet has close to 0 roll during hard cornering, the dct gearbox, the traction, etc, etc, etc......

I know what you mean M3 is the king on the road nothing can beat it in it class.
But for me I still would not get 1 unless there is a 2nd hand 1 for 700k
I will still sick to a 135 and a super7

The M3 finishing quality is a disappointment I must admit...

Regarding the M3 to 335/135 comparison, i guess you really need to really drive it to understand why it is costing almost double. In short, the M3 just feel so much connected even in stock form, from steering feel to suspension, I seems to know much more about what the car is doing espeically when being pushed.

My 335 have done almost everything I could on the suspension upgrade (except the rear tower bar), but still feel disconnected in comparison to the M.

I stand my claim in the e90 website, no matter how much you spend in modifying a 335/135 to make it as fast or even faster than a M3, it is still no comparison.

Jeff (the S4 friends I brought at our last drive) drove my 335, M3 (mine and at ZhuHai BMW experience) and also the 135, he has exactly the same comment as me.


my 2 cents,
Mike
