Maybe it's just the nostalgia around the period in recent time when BMW decided to make a smaller more simplistic M instead of a larger heavier M with more and more tech?
Short wheelbase w/big relative power. The car was twitchy much like the MZ3/MZ4 coupes.

Personally I don't understand what all the fascination is.
Twitchy is fun. It means it's fun always, even cruising at low speeds. You never feel like you are in a 3 series. Almost ever m car made recently feels like a 328 when you back off and drive on normal roads (sort of...). It also requires you to be good behind the wheel when you have a twitchy car. A true Motorsport car will be brilliant if you do things right, and will try to kill you if you don't. Beautiful really.
