The 535 was added just because that's all that was still available in cars for signup. Anyway, even without pushing very hard, is was easy to tell the difference, and I probably "knew" within a few minutes of test driving the M3, that I was getting this car. That was a test drive with just me and my wife without anyone showing me all the settings, so I imagine everything was still default.

If you would have had this reaction comparing a M3 and a 335is, I could maybe understand, but if a M3 and a 535 really felt that similar to you, I too would question if the M3 is a good fit. They are very different, and any test drive, outside of backing down a driveway, should show it.
I disagree. You can feel the difference backing down a driveway......
