Perfectly said.......when I first bought my e92 335i I loved it, but loved it knowing I put too many miles on a car to buy a used e46 M3 and couldn't afford two cars. I also knew the e92 M3 would probably be the way to go as I knew my life was changing. It has changed, both how many miles and financially, and I'm glad I waited.

But what amazed me is how many 335i owners just had no idea that there car, albeit fast as hell, was no M, it was still a regular 3. Don't get me wrong, love my car and some parts I will miss, but when my beast arrives, I won't have any problems handing the keys over the the 335. I take pride in my ability to objective about the things I use and own and I love my 335i, but damn some owners need to get a grip. //M is not something you can understand by reading, its something you just can't understand till you drive it. Never loved the //Ms until I got in one 10 years ago, and ever since there ain't an //M I have been in that I don't love and is the reason I came to love ALL BMW's.

Sorry for the longwinded post
