The M cars have never been out right the fastest things on the planet, nor they have had the best performance. They have always been the best overall package. This has always taken into account the price, practicality, luxury, and performance.

If you compare the E92 M3 against the Z06 or GT-R it fails in miserable fashion when it comes to performance. But I am assuming that you did not go with the same theory that you are applying now when it came time to buy your M3. The reason why many chose an M3 or other M cars is because they are better overall package. This is the same reason why car magazines picked M3 over GT-R or 911.

The E92 M3 you have as well as E60 M5, E46 M3, E39 M5 and now the 1M were never the overall out right champions in performance. But rather the best all rounders for the money.

maybe the better value but not the better car. whatever those germans wrote in that article is pure biased bullshit. i cant believe they had the balls to call the 1m the winner even tho it lost in every single performance comparison.
