M3 is a great sporty and powerful car with concessions made but definitely not a true sportscar, it's too heavy, has little torque, bad brakes standard.

I just don't like the 911 engine in the back philosophy, but you can bring me a 997/991 GT3 24/7

i can't hear you over the animated gif showing gearbox murder. lol

yes, she is a right heavy girl on hairpin tracks. and i love hairpins! 1M would be sweet if it came in the 5-door model. i'm not a turbo fan, but that car does it right despite still being pretty heavy for a "small" car.
