My car has driving characteristics that are DIFFERENT than an M3, and they are both based on the SAME 3 series platform
I guess you could also put in a Ferrari engine while you're at it.

Personally, I think 335 vs M3 posts are worthless unless you're comparing stock to stock.

If you go aftermarket the sky is the limit, but your reliability is questionable, and there's no warranty. There are plenty of videos of CTS-V station wagons blowing away Lambos - that is the power of after market enhancements.

Along the same lines, I believe saying things along the line of 335 > M3 when the former is heavily modded is also disingenuous or at the least irrelevant.
