The m3 really should have had more aggressive gearing for gears 1-4.
But the speed of the dct alone makes up for a ton of extra weight the m3 carries. Its about 250 pounds heavier

As far as I remember a 360 CS is about 600-700 pounds lighter than our cars. It curbs at 2850 pounds.. So I'm surpriced at how easy this M3 pulled on it.
