Procede with ( the purchase of )the M3
Then you will have what BMW believes is the best handling 3 series yet
You wont be disapointed, the 2 days at the ring experience I spent with the M-3 were very convincing, I drove the same track in our 335i Vert ZSP 6MN, not even close, the 335 Modded ( Vishnu) car I drove yesterday was pretty amazing but did not have the overall balance of the M-3.
Now you may procede with the arguments and debates
